SpectatorPlus

A host-only spectator mod designed specifically for competitive games. SpectatorPlus transforms the lobby host into a dedicated spectator, allowing them to observe any player in the game without interfering with gameplay.

Purpose

SpectatorPlus is designed for competitive gaming scenarios where you need a dedicated observer who can:

• Monitor all players without affecting the game

• Provide commentary or analysis

• Record gameplay from different perspectives

• Ensure fair play by watching for rule violations

Host-Only Security

This mod is exclusively for lobby hosts and will not function for regular players. This ensures:
