Player Organization
All maps support up to six players, consisting of two competitors and four spectators. The first two players in the game (Team 1 and Team 2) will be competitors. The last four players in the game (3, 4, 5, 6) will be spectators. There are no changes to competitor gameplay.

Spectators
Spectators will have their Recyclers removed from the game and cannot go within 30 meters of a player or their units. Spectators will spawn in a neutral location near the center of the map, and will spawn in an invincible "Spectator" unit that is identified as a Nav Beacon.

All maps in the Tournament 2016 Map Pack include spectator utilities. The maps are designed for 1v1 matches, with all non-competing players not on Team 1 or Team 2 as spectators. Those who are approved spectators will be able to use the following hotkeys and commands when spectating a game.

Ctrl+1 / Shift+1: Follow Player 1 (or by typing /watch 1)
Ctrl+2 / Shift+2: Follow Player 2 (or by typing /watch 2)

The Lua scripts powering these maps were written by Potato_047 using bzUtils, with input from Ded10c and HyperFighter. Special thanks to Rebellion for supporting and promoting the 2016 Strategy Tournament, and thanks to LordBeverage, The Deus Ex, and Ded10c for allowing their uploaded maps to be in this map pack. Their maps can be found in the Omega Squadron Multiplayer Map Pack, World: Elysium, and Battlezone: Battle Grounds.
