New Feature: Spectate Mode


On a whim I have arbitrarily decided I am going to make it so you can spectate fights in srdm. To be in spectate mode you simply won’t lock in a champion and when the host starts the game you will be put in spectate mode, able to see all the other players’ views but not able to play.

Surprisingly, this won’t be that difficult to add because of a few design quirks I accidentally programmed in.
First: Games dont crash when started without selecting anyone (You didn’t see anything though) which was possible in the past but no longer.

Second: The game operates on a trusted client p2p system. All players have all data about all players, the only reason you don’t see what the other players see is because I turned it off while in network multiplayer.

Third: it’s fairly trivial to determine if a game was started with you not having picked anyone.

So I originally had thought of doing this only for the 1v1 mode, and that may be the case it may not. It depends on how I plan on approaching exactly how to do it.

after I get it all working, I’ll try to post a video of it in action but that gets a bit tricky when trying to play multiple characters at once
