Is it possible to have something like a die hook? What I want is for a bunch of players to be in spectate mode. When a player not in spectate mode dies, he/she turns into a spectator and someone else in spectate mode dies and spawns to take their place. I'm not sure how to do this, or if it is even possible. Any help would be appreciated 
Thanks,
Hego64

I'm not familiar with the LUA plugin but if you do it via C++ you can create and attach a script and in the ::Killed() event do that kind of stuff. Does the LUA plugin allow you to create scripts?
Oh and in the A Path Beyond Gamma mod (which includes a build of scripts 4.0) there's an issue with using the normal spectate code, if you put someone in spectate in that mod, players will see the name tag of the player in spectate floating around where the player is located. So when scripts 4.0/TT patch gets released in the future, Renegade players will probably also be able to see the name tag of the guy in spectate.

Lua 4/5 supports Scripts, you can attach a script to all Players and use killed hook call from the script, is easy and yes you can see spectate on 4.0, i tested it on mutant co-op and i saw one of mods flying around me, lol
