Spectating in ZS

[Deacon]

So yeah, pretty straightforward.

Its hard to tell if people are aimbotting in ZS, so this feature would be great to have. Maybe a toggle feature like in TTT

[Deathie]

Had a guy in ZS, but I couldn't tell weather or not he was using an aimbot.

This would make shit

so much fucking easier

to catch people doing things they shouldn't.

[memo3300]

you know... i have allways thought about this but i never felt like posting it.

it would help a lot to see who are breaking the rules.

but also, if there is a hard map and easy to spawn camp like infected hospital, zombies would go spectator and afk.

maybe reg+?

[ursus]

Why isn't this implemented already?

You can pretty much aimbot all you want in ZS with no worry whatsoever of being banned.

[coolzeldad]

The game isn't designed with spectate.

You die and go to the other team

[Deacon]

asdfjkl;

so i'm guessing it would take a bit more than simple coding to make a third spectator team?
(i know nothing about coding, go easy on me)

[Deathie]

Make team in assmod that's a ghost (Cloaked, noclips, and spawns with no weapons), and make it usable by VIP+ with like /spectate or something?

I'm pretty sure you can't do it in gamemodes that don't derive from sandbox, but idk.

[Tomcat]

Code: [Select]

ply:Spectate( OBS_MODE_CHASE )

[StartedBullet]

Why not make everyone able to spectate? But reserve 3 spots on the spectate team for V.I.P./Admin

Because when the zombies can't win they will all goto the spec team.

[Peter Petrelli]

This also will help us watch over people who are exploiting 

[Mr. Franklin]

spectate for VIP and admin only? hence they can kick or ban.

yeah, this would make sense. that way there was no abuse of the spectator team.

[ursus]

yeah, this would make sense. that way there was no abuse of the spectator team.

how would people abuse?

simple as this, if you join spec you can only go back to zombie team

end of story

spectators could chat with alive people and tell them where the zombies are.
