Well, that's a new perspective, of course. Good you used the template now. We're also playing with ACE and when getting POWs we ziptie them, use the capture action and then we escort them via ACE. So not bothering with commanding them as group member. So with your description the issue might be that due to joining your group, the AI is of course changing his locality and therefore the function call on the server won't do what it should be anymore, because the argument isn't local anymore. Sounds senseful and in that case it needs to be changed.
So capturing POWs and gathering Intel is still possible and not broken with the considered way of handle POWs when running ACE. The issue is that that the "non-ace" way with commanding them as group member isn't working, when running ACE.
Will verify this issue on our weekly session this evening. 👍

Short Issue Description
The enemy joins our group after capturing him, but doesn't put the hands down or move, if the player doing isn't the host of the game.
Expected Behaviour
the captured soldier follows us
Steps to Reproduce the Issue
I tried to capture surrendering enemies a lot of times.
Screenshots, Serverlog or any other helpful Information
According to this page: https://ace3mod.com/wiki/framework/events-framework.html "Event handlers in ACE3 are implemented through CBA’s Event System. They should be used to trigger or allow triggering of specific functionality." the event "ace_captives_setSurrendered" should be called instead of the ace function directly. Note: the "ace_captiveStatusChanged" is a different event, called by the function we talked about in previous ticket.
use
["ace_captives_setSurrendered",[_unit,true],_unit] call CBA_fnc_targetEvent; and ["ace_captives_setSurrendered",[_unit,false],_unit] call CBA_fnc_targetEvent;
instead of
[_unit, true] call ACE_captives_fnc_setSurrendered; and [_unit, false] call ACE_captives_fnc_setSurrendered;
I don't want to create a Pull Request as my local git is a bit broken and I don't want to fix it for this ticket and I didn't need github for years.
