    I found a temporary fix on accident for the lifeline drone. I was in the firing range testing out the glide, then I checked the settings when I found an option for the the gliding to either have on Toggle or Hold. When I changed this setting, the tactical worked perfectly everytime until my character dies. I'm not sure if this will help in fixing the bug, but until then, you can toggle this setting back and forth to temporarily fix this issue.

    @King_Kenny5542 Thanks for sharing!

    For now, this would be a bit of an annoying fix until it gets patched by Respawn. Hopefully we won't have to wait very long for a fix though.

    No problem. The only issue is that you might have to do this multiple times throughout the match. If you get downed or do a finisher, you'll have to redo the thingy again.

    @King_Kenny5542 I had a match where I was respawned and suddenly I was able to assign doc to both teammates at will, and it was nice while it lasted.

    I hope Respawn can fix her tactical as soon as possible!

    When activating doc drone and new glide ability at the same time it completely disables using doc for the rest of the match please fix

    @Gameboymax1011 I’m having the same issue on PS5, works in firing range but not in game. I don’t play ranked but now I can’t play her for this reason and she’s my main 😩

    @catcrazysarah  I just found that even some content creators are haveing the same problem and it seems it should be fix soon but I don’t hear them talking about it so be ready to have a big fix in the mid season update

    It's in all Game Modes (except Launch Royale obviously). It works occasionally, but it's inconsistent. Should be noted the entire UI-Element for it is missing and when the drone goes on CD the tactical button disappears entirely until the cooldown is back.

    FYI though: Disabling and Re-Enabling the "Button Hints" option in the settings makes it work. If it breaks again, do it over again.

    Also for anyone tracking this, it's on Respawn's Trello board:
