Hello, thanks for this terrific plugin, I'm using it for more than a year ant it's extremely handy.

Could you please add country name from which the player is from while spectating?

It's just we have different ban requirements for different countries, one require the demo to be uploaded to SB and others do not.

Hi there

Having an issue with this plugin, when I am alive and I try to set to spectate someone (for when I die), it teleports me back to my spawn! Bloody weird, any fix for this at all?

Fair enough I could just not do it when I am alive, but still, is there a fix regardless?

Indeed, this plugin needs to be modified to NOT require the use of the very outdated DukeHacks.

To fix the conflicting, and vastly used command sm_spec, I'm going to manually edit out the line:
RegConsoleCmd("sm_spec", Command_Spectate, "Spectate a player");
and recompile.

Awaiting the up and coming new and improved plugin

After removing above stated line of code from simple-spectate.sp and recompiling, I got:

//SourceMod Batch Compiler
// by the SourceMod Dev Team


//// simple-spectate.sp

Press enter to exit ...

I'll test to make sure it didn't break anything, which it shouldn't have because I only removed a RegConsoleCmd and post the .sp here.

Plugin tested and all seems to be working.

in this .sp, all I did was remove the line:
RegConsoleCmd("sm_spec", Command_Spectate, "Spectate a player");

so, now, the commands to spectate a player are sm_spectate and sm_observe. The reason for this edit was because more than a couple of other admin plugins (including the one I use, Advanced Commands) use sm_spec to force a player into spectate, and this plugin was using it as a short version of sm_spectate... so, not much was lost by removing the consolecmd sm_spec.

since the .sp won't compile because it requires other includes that the web compiler doesn't have, I modified the original .sp in the original .zip and attached the updated .zip here.

Russian translation (24 may updated)
+ added spectating option in custom menu (in english) (configs/adminmenu_custom.txt)

I'm having the same issue as Simmy and people are using it as an exploit, going and playing until they fear they'll die/get ambushed then teleport back to spawn!

Whats happens is, when you go into spectate the menu comes up, you don't select any options but hit M and choose a team. Once you spawn, you play, then when you want to you select 1 from the SimpleSpectate menu and suddenly you're back in spawn!

that's not good

Hi there, can it be confirmed that this will be modified to use SDKHooks at all, and if possible, can an ETA be provided for this?
