Is there anyway we could add a way for other people to watch games between other and if you create the game you choose spectators on or off spectators cannot talk to anyone in the game or else they could tell a friend where someone is

we talked about this be for. we found out not everyone playing the map wouldn't want the Specatator watching. it would take everyone to agree playing the map to agree for thatperson to over see vthe match.


unless i dont think we said this. but if the person who agreed with the person specating the match can only watch what he does.

so if the specator is watching the blue player. the specator can see him move if the blue player moves a tank into the yellow base or near his base he would be able to see it. but the fog would cover up the trail. so when the blue tank gets destoryed by yellow the specator will have a few seconds to see the yellow base before the fog comes back up.

so anywhere the blue tank is at the fog wont regenerate

Do a FFA and then if two people observe it can be a 1v1.

I think that may be the only issue with a spectator mode (besides having to actually implement it).

If were going to watch how people build and the tactics they use, that may ruin the point of a "Strategy Center" forum where some players already reveal successful strategies.

Therefore proves my point further. Its only fair if everyone has the ability to access successful strategies by simply accessing the Strategy Center forum (which also encourages forum use among new players).
