SPECTATOR UPDATE
An improvement upon the Agar mode which should make it even more fun. If a giant gets too big the match goes into "TeamUp mode" which means: everyone against the giant! So damage is only dealt to the giant and by the giant... until he's dead.
The most requested feature is here - Spectator mode! Works in free cam (ASDW) and follow player (LMB/RMB). Please note: spectator chat is invisible to players.
If you're waiting in a ranked queue and a game starts the Soldat 2 icon on the Windows taskbar will now start blinking (additionally to playing a start game sound).
The current player queues list is clickable, so you can join a non-empty queue right away!
The ongoing ranked games list is joinable as spectator!
More info showing who returned, took and scored the flag in the "kill log". Kill Log length is also adjustable in settings now.

A new patch with spectator mode, Agar teamup against giants, new flag kill log info and more quality of life improvements.
AGAR TEAMUP
An improvement upon the Agar mode which should make it even more fun. If a giant gets too big the match goes into "TeamUp mode" which means: everyone against the giant! So damage is only dealt to the giant and by the giant... until he's dead.
SPECTATOR MODE
The most requested feature is here - Spectator mode! Works in free cam (ASDW) and follow player (LMB/RMB). Please note: spectator chat is invisible to players.
RANKED QoL
If you're waiting in a ranked queue and a game starts the Soldat 2 icon on the Windows taskbar will now start blinking (additionally to playing a start game sound).
The current player queues list is clickable, so you can join a non-empty queue right away!
The ongoing ranked games list is joinable as spectator!
NEW KILL LOG FLAG INFO
More info showing who returned, took and scored the flag in the "kill log". Kill Log length is also adjustable in settings now.
