[18:08:19] <@Dusk> Esum, yeah i guess what happens is that the spectator movement is clientside
[18:08:26] <Esum> So
[18:08:26] <@Dusk> thus the spectator never moves for the server
[18:08:35] <@Dusk> so when the cheat is called it spawns where the server thinks the spectator is
[18:08:44] <@Dusk> i.e. at the start
[...]
[18:09:19] <@Dusk> Esum, see if you join first
[18:09:21] <@Dusk> then re-spec
[18:09:25] <@Dusk> move around and spawn an imp
[18:09:29] <@Dusk> it spawns where you spectated at
[18:09:48] <Esum> i'll try
[18:10:59] <Esum> Dusk it does
[18:11:01] <@Dusk> see
[18:11:16] <@Dusk> i guess the fix would be to make the summon cheat use x/y/z coords
[18:11:42] <@Dusk> would need.. 6 bytes more per summon cheat but it's cheats so eh

 Following the steps you will also be able to notice that the summon and summonfriend cheats are not logged at all (i.e. There isn't any Player is a cheater: summon ...).

 Spectators are not supposed to interact with the game mechanics in any way. So if there is a bug here, then that the spectator is allowed to use the summon cheat at all.

 I always thought this was intended behavior.

@Esum: If the summon cheat was logged, then there would be massive flood in cheat servers.

 Wouldn't it just be possible to disable all cheats for Spectators on the client side?

 ^Sometimes it's necessary to summon things while spectating online for bugtesting purposes.

 I guess so.
What about separate svar?
