Summary0000273: Advanced spectator options
DescriptionSpectators should have the ability to activate/deactivate the fly/noclip cheats. Also, there should be a CVAR, cl_spectatorspeed, that ranges from 0.5-2.0, default 1.0.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional InformationThe cheats would be best for areas inaccessible by normal, line-special ways, and cl_spectatorspeed would be best for large maps or precision movement for screenshots.
TagsNo tags attached.

I implemented the latter request (spectator speed) as a new CVar cl_spectatormove in neurosphere:
'https://bitbucket.org/CrimsonDusk/neurosphere/changeset/dd9eaf9bb087 [^]'

That's certainly should be implemented with a server cvar allowing to turn on/off this feature. Otherwise spectators could use it to find secrets & tell players in game about them.

They can do that anyway, even without this.

I mean that now walls clips spectators movement, so only some secrets can be found but without clipping spectators able to observe remote areas separated from the rest by void and normally won't be found ever.

They ought to be able to find all of them. They can anyway by opening the level in an editor, so it's merely a matter of convenience.

The patch looks good, except for the limits on cl_spectatormove maybe. IMHO those could be lowered considerably. Can anybody really control the movement if cl_spectatorspeed is bigger than 100?

If you create a zandronum-history.txt entry and commit the patch to a new head, I'll pull it.

cl_spectatormove works for normal movement, but not for flying up/down.

Will spectators be allowed to toggle fly/noclip cheats? (They can't yet even with what was added here.)

Fly up/down movement was added in patch linked in child ticket 0000964

I couldn't figure this out back then, maybe I could try it again at some point. However, I think this ticket should be about cl_spectatormove, have noclip for spectators be handled in 0000029

Yes, let's discuss this in the other ticket and consider this one to be resolved (after testing).

Sorry if it's been said somewhere, but is there a build I can test this with?

cl_spectatormove is included in 1.0, noclip should be discussed in 0000029, so I'm closing this.
