Bird's Eye View - Spectator System

It would be beyond epic if you turned into a bird when you died in DarkRP aha

Blank If uploaded a new version with support for SAM permissions. If you're having issues with the addon please open a support ticket.

Would there be a simple way to disable permissions overall? I just switched to SAM (which isn't supported by this) from xAdmin. Tried to remove the "can see" permissions and such, got the job to show up, you can join it - but you don't turn into a bird.

SugarTheCat 2nd I haven't seen any major performance hit. They both work in similar ways though, so it's not likely to be significantly different.

If you're having issues, feel free to open a support ticket.

Is this optimized? there's another one in the terrorpack but it takes quite a bit of performance both clientside and serverside.

Jimbo The TTT portion of the code was written a while ago, but at the time it was tested for compatibility with SpecDM. I'm not aware of any major changes to SpecDM so I don't imagine there'll be any issues.

Sadly you can't be a bird while you''re in SpecDM. Can you imagine, birds with guns?

Are you aware if this is compatible with Tommy228's SpecDM for TTT or has this not been tested?

Jimbo When a player with appropriate permissions dies in TTT, they will automatically spawn as a bird. They can hit their noclip bind (in TTT this draws your traitor weapon when you're alive) at any time to switch between normal spectating and birds. If there's a kill zone over spawn when a player spawns as a bird they'll be automatically moved back to normal spectator mode.

If you're using ULX, there's also a separate permission for a !bird command to turn any player into a bird. If the player is alive at the time this is effectively a slay though, since birds aren't considered living players.

How exactly does this work for TTT? Is it just an additional option like SpecDM and you just type "!bird" similar to how in SpecDM you'd just do "!dm", or do you have to set it up in ULX so the user has access to the custom ULX bird command but can only target themselves? Or even if they don't have permissions for noclip, would their noclip bind still turn them into a bird? I am a little confused on how this works lol

Would be awesome to have some different skins people can buy in a pointshop: Examle: Phoenix, Hawk, Goose, Mini Dragon, Owl, Thunderbird, A pixel bird(minecraft dragon or so?) and others.

RoZeL I've added support for xAdmin permissions in the latest update. I don't have access to a copy of xAdmin to test it properly myself, but it's using functions from their API so it should work fine.

Is xadmin supported?

do this addon can be in murder gamemode?

I would get this, but I'm not fond on it interfering with the living players. Would be great for it to be seperate to the living (like specdm).

lmao

Southpaw I'll look into that config option, check back later for an update.

It's unlikely to conflict with pointshop or rdm manager (though birds may show up in death scenes, untested). SpecDM should be fine too, it's been a while since I wrote the TTT portion of the code but I tested thoroughly with a version of SpecDM at the time.

Handi I wasn't aware of another addon based on the same idea, but I looked into it. It looks like the workshop addon is definitely a more basic implementation of the idea, and also wouldn't work with TTT. I couldn't get it to work out of the box in darkrp either, so maybe it's out of date? If that addon suits your needs I won't stop you using it, but if you want a neater more feature-rich implementation with support from a developer that doesn't threaten to "SNAP YOUR FUCKING SKINNY LEGS CUNT" (autorun/cawcawnigger.lua of that addon) this is probably the better choice.

wtf this is a steam workshop addo... who would pay for this

kek

Bird is the word

this looks really fun

Also, is it compatible (won't conflict) with common addons like pointshop, rdm manager (death scenes), specdm etc?

Is it possible to have a config that allows us to enable/disable birds for the living? So they can't interfere/interact and be seen by living players? A bit like specdm?

That way dead players can just fly about as birds without bothering or confusing living players, also because there are bird pets and is a bird detective camera
