Spectator Mode
Spectator Mode is a powerful tool that allows server admins to fly around in spectator mode and spawn in items, food, water, hand out quests, change the time of day and weather, spawn in creatures for players to interact with, and more. Spectator Mode also lets admins drag players around and edit items that are placed on the map. It is a powerful tool that lets admins directly interact with their community and host unique events in real-time.
In order to use Spectator Mode, you must have permission to use it via your assigned Player Role. Learn how to edit Player Roles here.. Then you can follow these steps to use Spectator Mode:
