Something for the admin team:

Now, this differs quite a bit from the standard freecam in BF2. Firstly, prbot is a vehicle that only the player using it can use, whereas freecam affects all players on the server. Secondly, it has full 6-axis movement, whereas freecam only has 3-axis. It also has a handy zoom for seeing those far away people.

So, we have designed this to have a few uses in PR. You can use it to admin matches, you can use it to shoutcast tournaments, you can use it to have some awesome camera angles for videos. Or, you can just use it to fly around and check out the awesome new maps. It's up to you how to use it .

To use it, there's a couple of things you need to do:
- You need to have a dedicated server, so you can spawn it.
- You then need to add your ingame name to the "PRSPECTATORS" array in "mods/pr/python/game/realityconfig_common.py" (this is so not everyone has access to spawning it, causing all sorts of problems).
- Then, once you've restarted your server, you can simply spawn the vehicle by typing "rcon spec" in the ingame console.
- Once you've spawned it (it'll appear about 10m in front of you), press E to hop in, fire to get yourself moving, and have fun .

That's about it, just a little something that we've added in to be different .
