Spectator List

Similar to the AMXX plugin by FatalisDK, this plugin builds a list of people that are spectating you and displays it as a HudHint message. Also when you're dead you can see which players are spectating the player you are currently spectating.

This plugin takes advantage of the new env_hudhint entity, which was introduced when CS:S was updated to the OB engine.



Cvars:
sm_speclist_enabled <0|1> - Enables the spectator list for all players by default. (Default: 1)
sm_speclist_allowed <0|1> - Allows players to enable spectator list manually when disabled by default. (Default: 1)
sm_speclist_adminonly <0|1> - Only admins can use the features of this plugin. (Default: 0)

Note: plugin.speclist.cfg will be automatically generated in your SourceMod cfg directory.

Commands:
sm_speclist - Toggles the spectator list on/off for that player.

Changelog:

Spectator List 1.1.2 - Fixed an issue with the AdminOnly cvar Spectator List 1.1.1 - Fixed a small bug when spectating a client that disconnects Spectator List 1.1.0 - Added cvar sm_speclist_adminonly - Automatically generate config file Spectator List 1.0.0 - Initial release

Wouldnt this just alert hackers to the fact they are being watched and enable them to toggle hacks? I dont get this at all.

its up to the server owner to use this or not. this is something useful some people would like to have

That's pretty useful for admins spectating a player and discussing via TS if he's cheating. Now they can check if they spectate the same player.

I've modified it to show only to admins in spectator, that's all i need. Thank you!

WTF?
Hey I am not knocking it at all, just questioning its function. I am sure it would be appreciated by someone. Next time maybe don't assume, all I said was I don't get it. And please never put words in my mouth I never said it was silly, you did.

I like this idea!

Updated to 1.1.0

why other players do not see who for they observe? only I (admin) this sees! and as be with source tv??

[GoD-Tony]

I'm getting slightly odd behaviour from this since the CS:S update. People are able to use spectate list regardless of the sm_speclist_adminonly cvar setting. I'll post back with an update soon.

Edit: Updated to 1.1.2

why are you limiting this to css? should work for tf2 too etc.
might need some small fixes.
also it would be nice if there were several ways of presenting the data to players. menu-style, chat, etc etc. so this plugin could work for games not supporting HudHint messages.
also nice: admins should be able to filter themselfs from other players list, so they can spec someone without them seeing it.

Does it work for TF2? I don't own that game, so I'm not able to support it. I'll consider adding multiple display methods.

I like this idea. I might need to rethink my cvar layout though. I always like when a plugin has ~2-3 cvars and works immediately without fumbling with config options.
