Player object to server object

Hi guys,

Getting very confused about ReplacePlayerForConnection to turn a player into a server object.
I want my player object to remain in the scene when it is replaced (Acts as a player corpse) with a new player object.

The weird thing is that when I look at the network information about the corpse object it still says it has a playercontrollerid of 0 while nonplayer objects have a playercontrollerid of -1.

Code (CSharp):

1. NetworkServer.ReplacePlayerForConnection(replacePlayer.GetComponent<NetworkIdentity>().connectionToClient, o, 0);

I have a feeling the old object still has some kind of relation to the client connection which is not what I want.

Anyone has an idea?

Cheers
