Description
Team Spectate
Team Spectate lets you view your team mates’ screen.
This mod only works in Multiplayer. The Menu button is below the team selector.

If you have any problems or bugs, contact me on my discord[discord.gg]!
This mod is open source on GitHub[github.com]. If you have a GitHub account, please give it a star!

Special thanks:
Mirsario for fixing unloaded chunks
pollen__ for giving me his player render code.
bafto for multiplayer testing



How it works:

If you click on a player button other than your own, you start spectating the other player.
To exit the spectating mode press the player button again or press your own player.

You can NOT spectate players that are dead, in a different team than you, or don't exist.
Everyone can spectate players that are in no team.

If you can't spectate a player, their player head button turns grey.

You can also cycle different players using a hotkey (you have to set it fist)

You are also able to spectate a boss by clicking its button in the same menu.

If you die you automatically spectate the closest player (can be turned off).
When you respawn you automatically stop spectating (can also be turned off).

having the same issue as @galactic as well. amazing mod but the bug makes it borderline unusable
My friends and I are connected to Terraria through intranet penetration
During the process of using this mod, I found that when I used hotkeys (set by myself) to watch other players, the perspective of everyone I played with was also on that person, and in the end, I couldn't solve this problem.
Is there any operation that can temporarily solve this problem?

That's weird. I have to test it more then. Thanks for the reports

I'm having the same problem as @galactic where whenever someone dies, everyone spectates the closest player instead of just the person who died.

We turned off the setting to automatically spectate upon death, which fixed the problem, but it would be nice to have that feature working.

This mod is really good early game before you can stack up on wormhole potions, so you can show all the cool stuff you find when you are playing with 10+ mods :steamthumbsup: :D :terraria:

In the new update my friends can be randomly sent to spectating someone else, it may be when someone dies (from spectate closest upon dying setting). Though I haven't seen it happen nearly enough times to be sure as I disabled the setting quickly the first time it happened and only heard it from my friends after that.

I doubt that a mod which changes the camera position has any affect on your save file. A different mod might be responsible.

> Could you add a configuration to automatically kick the player out of spectating once they respawn? - @trashoflevillage
@helscarthe added that in 2.5


> Additionally, could you add a config that makes the player automatically spectate the nearest alive player once they die?

Added that in 2.6

> If not, then could I perchance have access to the code so I can make a fork with these configs?
