Promoted GM and Game Features

Playing a Savage Worlds game, I have two degs of cards, one representing bennies, and one for initiative.  I have "Show deck to players" and "Players can draw cards".   I promoted a player to GM and found that they could not deal any of the cards, all they could do is draw.   Is this expected behavior, as in they have to create their own decks, or do I need some other setting checked?

Had the player re-loaded the game after being promoted? They would still be logged in as a player otherwise and wouldn't have access to their shiny new ' co-GM ' features.

Also, Bob, since you're a Pro subscriber, if you're interested Pat Elwer created an API Script for Savage Worlds Initiative. &nbsp;It's awesome and I use it all the time. <a href="https://github.com/pelwer1/Deal-Init" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/pelwer1/Deal-Init</a> If you use the Savage Worlds Tabbed Sheet, it's also already set up to make use of this script for things like Quick, Level-Headed, etc.
@Ziechael - I believe she logged in after I promoted her, I think she had access to some of the other things, but I could be mistaken now that you mention it. @Finderski I'm taking a look now (I was using a custom sheet because the setting I'm using has a couple of other attributes and skills, but I might consider switching back to tabbed interface since I had some serious bugs in mine. :) Thank you both for responding!
