Overview
The observer mode can be used to watch other players or team flags. It can also be used to freely roam around the map.
Controls
The default controls for observer mode are as follows:
Control Binding | Action |
L | Display a label just under each tank listing their name. |
Arrow Keys | Navigates the camera around with tank-driving style controls. |
Ctrl+Arrow Keys | Pans and tilts the camera without moving the position. |
Shift+Arrow Keys | Moves the camera position up and down vertically, and left and right horizontally. |
Alt+Arrow Keys | |
F8 | Cycles through various observer modes: roaming, driving with a tank, following a tank, tracking a tank, and tracking a team flag. |
F6/F7 | Previous/Next target in the current display mode. Does not have any effect in the roaming mode. |
A | Toggles momentum on the camera movement. |
/roampos Command
There is an extra command for use in roaming mode that enables you to define the camera position and rotation.
