One issue I've found using this so far is that it's difficult to know exactly who is closest to the center of the screen without a crosshair |
|
Now I'm wondering if it would be better to workout the player closest to the center client side and have a command sent to the server to spectate a specific player instead, that way there wouldn't be any issues with prediction and you could also use this for binds to spectate specific players without looking at them |
|
I can test this out later today. I do have a suggestion, though not sure how much of a lift it is on your end. Would it be better to draw a camera icon or the players name above their head when they are the one closest to the clients screen center? |

What's the status of this PR? I think it's fine to merge as is. If we want more explicit feedback before switching to the new target we can add that later.

dotProduct > 0 seems a bit generous here. Maybe do 0.5 for a 60º cone?
