Is it possible to make a mod where I am able to enter spectator team with a click of a button, go where I want, then press that same button again and appear there?

Yes! I am pretty sure it can be done... Added to to-do list haha

That would be very usefull for an admin to spectate a player without free spectate enabled. People abuse free spectate.

It would be really useful if we could have free spectator on the spectators team, while the player teams would have spectate disabled (useful to monitor S&D matches)

Basically, some script that would set spectate type free to the spectator team, independently from the setting on the dsr, that would only apply to the player teams.

In IW4m you can set it through the .gsc files. It Вґs called UFO mode. But I donВґt know if itВґs available in IW5M.

I remember NH9 did it when he was testing bots, so it is possible.

PlayerConnected += new Action(player =>
{
 if (Call("getdvarint", "mapedit_allowcheats") == 1 && (player.GetField("name") == "ADMIN_NAME_HERE"))	
     player.Call("notifyonplayercommand", "fly", "+frag");
 player.OnNotify("fly", (ent) =>
 {
    if (player.GetField("sessionstate") !="spectator")
{
	player.Call("allowspectateteam","freelook", true);
	player.SetField("sessionstate","spectator");
	player.Call("setcontents",0);
 }
else
 {
	 player.Call( "allowspectateteam","freelook", false);
	 player.SetField("sessionstate","playing");
	 player.Call("setcontents",100);
 }
 });

 

That's what you need. Activated when an admin throws a grenade.

I compiled it like this:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using InfinityScript;

namespace Spectator
{

   public class Spectator : BaseScript
   {
       public Spectator()
           : base()
       {

           PlayerConnected += new Action(player =>
             {
                 if (Call("getdvarint", "mapedit_allowcheats") == 1 && (player.GetField("name") == "Paulofonta"))
                     player.Call("notifyonplayercommand", "fly", "+frag");
                 player.OnNotify("fly", (ent) =>
                 {
                     if (player.GetField("sessionstate") != "spectator")
                     {
                         player.Call("allowspectateteam", "freelook", true);
                         player.SetField("sessionstate", "spectator");
                         player.Call("setcontents", 0);
                     }
                     else
                     {
                         player.Call("allowspectateteam", "freelook", false);
                         player.SetField("sessionstate", "playing");
                         player.Call("setcontents", 100);
                     }
                 });
             });
       }
   }
}

Launched the server, loaded the script, restarted the map, went in-game, threw a grenade and went to spectator team.

And I didn't get free spectate... I even tried a second time after setting "mapedit_allowcheats 1" on the server's console.

What did I miss?

Should be like this:

		self allowSpectateTeam( "allies", true );
		self allowSpectateTeam( "axis", true );
		self allowSpectateTeam( "freelook", false );
		self allowSpectateTeam( "none", true );

Wow thanks guys!

player.OnNotify("fly", (ent) =>
               {
                   if (player.GetField("sessionstate") != "spectator")
                   {
                       player.Call("allowspectateteam", "freelook", true);
                       player.SetField("sessionstate", "spectator");
                       player.Call("setcontents", 0);
                   }
                   else
                   {
                       player.Call("allowspectateteam", "freelook", false);
                       player.SetField("sessionstate", "playing");
                       player.Call("setcontents", 100);
                   }
               });

 

player.Call("notifyonplayercommand", "fly", "+frag");

Is work still being done on the QCZM mod?

I've been working on it a bit myself. Nothing major, though.
