If the Host of the Lobby is in a Spectator slot, you can still read input from them via Is Button Held. For example, Is Button Held(Host Player, Interact)
would return True
if the spectating Host pressed E
(or their bound Move Up
button).
You can also detect inputs from any spectator as long as these inputs are checked in a field of a visual element using the Local Player value. Make sure the Local Player is a spectator using Not(Entity Exists(Local Player))
. For example, you can make a HUD text appear to a spectator when they hold their Move Up
button by putting the following code in the Visible To
parameter:
If-Then-Else(
Not(Entity Exists(Local Player)),
If-Then-Else(
Is Button Held(Local Player, Button(Interact)),
Local Player,
Null
),
Null
)
