Spectator Mod

Server side mod that allows every player to spectate everyone.
Unfortunately it does not display names, but you can call the spec function with a string argument to spectate someone specific.

Changes

• Add function "Automatically spectate your killer after death cam has ended" and related ConVar(int) spectator_afterdeathcam.
• Changed ConVars from Bool to Int (please update your config files) because somehow I am too stupid to make them work.
• Fix bug: spectator_chatinfo_message not appearing.
• Replaced spectator cycle function with something less shitty.
• !Hotfix crash when attacker was not a player.

Usage

Type spec into console. Use A/D (LEFT/RIGHT) to switch between players.
Type spec pla to spec a player whose name has pla in his name (would for example spectate on "player" now).

Features still needed

1. Display the name of spectate target (can't send chat messages to player while spectating with Chat_ServerPrivateMessage or use OBS_MODE_IN_EYE on to display name card, because OBS_MODE_IN_EYE/THIRD_PERSON seem to only work on same team).

ConVars for chat announcements

You can use following ConVars to edit the config on the run or add them to your autoexec_ns_server.cfg to set them on server start.
