Spring RTS Engine

It would be cool, if there was some kind of in betweenstage for Spectrators, where they only can use FPS Mode for there selected Side and are limited to the Units the Strategy Players gives them. And there should be the Ability for the Strategyplayers to give them NavPoints to work down.

Its very hard for a player to be better controlling a unit in fps mode than controlling a unit in rts mode, so I dont think it would be used much.

It would be nice if spactators can be passengers in the units, i.e. enter fps mode but unable to control the units, intead just sit back and enjoy.

You can probably already do that. Try using /specfullview 2.

yes if often wanted to "fly" inside a stray fighter from the oppsit team while spectating, not to controll t but to see its actions, i think id use it , but i really die so, yeah

just comshare instead of spec?

Comsharers can give orders, even if inadvertently. While it may not seem like such a big deal, you might accidentally blow up something you don't want to blow up - on several occasions, when I'd fired somewhere in FPS mode and went out of the unit, the unit resumed firing. If for instance it were a high-AoE weapon and if it was aimed at, say, a fusion.....

Plus, if you comshare you must CONTROL the unit. If you spect and FPS, you just SEE what the unit does.
