Improving the Spectator system.

[JamJoenut]

At the moment I find that the current spectator system could be improved on. What I find annoying the most is that you have to click each time to spectate the individual person you want. What I suggest is to have a compass like you have in the lobby when your spectating. Therefore you can simply click once on the player you want to spectate, its a lot more simpler and its less hassle when you want to watch your friends without it taking forever or if you need to record someone who might be hacking or exploiting the fist glitch for reports. In addition to this, every time you can shot with an arrow you literally get pushed above the map, when will this be fixed?.

What you guys think of the current spectator system, do you think it can be improved? Is it possible? Can you update the spectator system to be compatible with different plugins?

I think the spectator system is actually incredibly smooth and versatile, and far better than the Hive style of speccing that you are suggesting. If you want to spectate a specific player, then type /spec (name of player here). Otherwise, you can easily flick through all the different players in the game and see how they're doing.

Oh I didn't realise that . But still there is no harm in implementing both systems together, it can vary with different people.

You can also do /spec [first letters of the person who you want to watch]

I realise that now aha, but do you think it can be adjusted in anyway?.

I mean, I'm not going to get into sponsoring, but I actually like the current spectating system.

Clicking on the name on TAB could also be a good idea,but little bit useless,do /spec is not so hard

Even if both systems were implemented, the /spec command will still be way quicker then looking through rows of heads.

@JamJoenut1996, the reason why you get TP'd up when an arrow hits you is because you actually block that arrow. It can be an advantage if you are trying to protect someone. The fall time is enough that the person can fully charge the bow, and fire before you reach them. So, it's kinda a respect/it's fair thing for both sides.

Oh alright, didn't know it was used for that reason. It's weird that spectator mode can alter the outcome of a game.

Very small, but it can.
