Admin spectator mode

[Qinji]

I ran a search for this on the forums and didn't find anything...

I think an admin spectator mode is a moderator tool that is sorely needed.

This can be useful for helping to discern who is hacking with speedhacks, aimhacks, wallhacks, flying, noclip, teleport, etc.

I know that server commands have just been added, like /ban /kick /tp etc.
but it's hard to know just who to ban without risking angering innocent players by banning the wrong person.

Spectator modes should be unable to interact with the game and can only watch the game, should be admin only, and can include 1.) seeing through another player's eyes 2.) invisible third person and flying.

a great idea

Just spent a very frustrating day today trying to moderate a server...had about 20 people in average.


Players were claiming hacks left and right, even I see stuff going on like item spawns, etc...but I just CAN'T KNOW who to ban/kick.

I try to /tp to people to try to watch for naughty shenanigans but I only get killed immediately by everyone.

Server admins/mods need to be placed outside of the game...
either as a non-player spectator
or be able to toggle invulnerability or invisibility

it makes no sense to try and fight hackers with god-like abilities while being limited to the constraints of a regular player.


----------------

there also needs to be an indicator of who is carrying admin status as players were starting to lynch me as a hacker myself.

also, admin commands are not invisible, it's said to be buggy but the chat does not roll back at all as it's supposed to.

also also, /i command doesn't work... unless I'm doing it wrong

/i 14022 1

to spawn an mre?
