# ezQuake Manual: Spectator Tracking

This feature and manual page has been inherited from the FuhQuake client made by A Nourai aka 'fuh' (#fuhquake on Quakenet irc).

There are 3 ways of using the 'track' command.

The first is 'track player_name' (use name completion with this obviously).

The second is 'track userid' (pretty useless).

The third is the best and most important. It is demonstrated below.

    bind  KP_1	"track #1"
    bind  KP_2	"track #2"
    bind  KP_3	"track #3"
    bind  KP_3	"track #4"
    bind  KP_5	"track #5"
    bind  KP_6	"track #6"
    bind  KP_7	"track #7"
    bind  KP_8	"track #8"

In a 4v4 mvd, the above 8 binds will make the keypad numbers 1,2,3,4 track the four players on one team and make the keypad numbers 5,6,7,8 track the four players on the other team.

In a 2v2 keypad numbers 1,2 = first team and 3,4 = second team.

You can bind more keys (all the way up to 'track #32') if you are watching a 16v16 etc.

Oh and if you are watching an 8 way ffa, then the above binds assign one keypad number to each of the players.

If its a 2v2v2 then keypad numbers 1,2 = first team, 3,4 = next team and 5,6 = last team.

So basically #1 #2 #3 ... order the players by teams.

We recommend making a config just for spectating and watching mvd's with cfg_save/cfg_load .

See Multiview manual too.
