Mod request

Blatanty stole this from other game but i think FA would benefit from having this feature too.

I'd call it mentor mod or alike and use it for teaching purposes.
The idea is simple. The mod would allow a 3rd player in a custom game to view the game from the desired player's point of view like you can do it in a replay, but in an actual game and only from that player's POV.
I believe that will be really helpful for trainers teaching new players the game. Much better trainer-trainee ineraction, when trainee can be told what and where he did wrong right at the moment he did it, use the the advice etc etc.

I suck at modding this game and cant do this myself so i figured if i could ask the community? If someone would make this mod happen, it will be really awesome

open console and type "setfocusarmy 0" for player 1, 1 for player 2, etc. to go into player view as observer. -1 to go back to obs.

No mod needed.

[Mad`Mozart]

Oh really? You can do this as observer or what?

[Nombringer]

Oh my god.

This changes everything.

[ZLO_RD]

Does it needs to be cheats enabled or somethhing? or it is for observer? 0_0
that is interesting!

[Nombringer]

Although I just realise my console key is bound to "upgrade nearest, non upgraded mass extractor"

[Zock]

Yes, as observer. I think it works without cheats enabled, but not 100% sure.

hehe, a mod for this would be good, whereby the camera of player x is replicated from player y, so when player y moves his view the view of player x matches the view.

kinda like player y controls his own camera and also player x camera.

Nice idea too, could you do that?
