Thanks for the quick and informative answer!

First off, this is my first post here so I'm not sure about where to put this but... I've had this idea for a while now and recently began learning programming so I think it may be feasible to do.

What I want to do is to make a camera bot for spectating tf2 matches (mainly for highlander because it's so hectic). The basic idea is to assign points to different interesting things (e.g. damage, kills, killstreaks, headshots, backstabs, med picks, airshots etc.), which wear off over time, and then put the camera on the player with the most points.

Things to consider:

* minimum camera time on target

* lead time on target

* initial target (on match start)

* server latency

* time limit on points

* general timings of everything

* difference between 6v6 and highlander

Would there be any interest in something like this? Would it be extremely difficult to do?
