Yes, that bug has been there for ages, could someone fix it already

You mean .take an enemy team when an enemy leaves ?

(otherwise it doesn't seem too much of a bug... it's seems ok to me to take the team of an ally that left)

The issue is that while a spect he could see what the enemy was doing.

How about limiting it so that .take only
works for spectators if cheating is enabled?

^^ Sounds about right.

What if instead when a person dies, he can choose to either become an omniscient spec that can't retake (unless cheats are enabled), or he can be a team spec, where he can only see what his team sees but can retake a lost teammates units.

For me this sound better... (as in large games there are some people that quit to early).

The problem is you stay as a spec, the units just look like yours. You can't control them or talk to allies or anything. Nobody else can take them and you can't give them away.

Exactly. That is the problem.

So just block specs .take commands etc... then it would be fine...

And that .team works only when .cheats are on. And we still are missing the commands like .setteam keke 1 (player keke goes to team 1) ...
