Entity Description

Marks a camera location for Team Fortress 2 players. Any spectating players (due to selecting the Spectator team or being unable to respawn at the time) have the ability to select this camera location to observe.

Note:Certain game entities, such as the func_tracktrain used for payloads, will also count as observer cameras.

Bug:Failure to include spectator cameras will lead to dedicated servers crashing if all players on a team die at the same time.  [todo tested in ?]

Bug:Spectator cameras with a roll will taint the view of other spectatable objects (like players) that doesn't set the roll.  [todo tested in ?]
