Unable to spectate recorded movements

It would add a significant amount of utility if players were able to spectate a bot that is playing back recorded movements.
They can just join the spectator team and watch the bot?
Hi peace-maker - thanks for the quick reply! You're right, I just retested this and am now able to spectate the bots properly. I was clearly doing something wrong the last few times I tried to do so or something was interfering. I'll post back here if I can replicate this again!
A follow-up on this. I am able to spectate a mimicking bot, however, their hands / weapons are not displayed. This is an issue when trying to use a bot to demonstrate a pop-flash or smoke, for instance. On the same server, I can spectate non-mimicking bots and regular players properly (their arms and weapons are displayed).
This is a known general glitch with the client when respawning players through a plugin. You can fix it clientside if you press space 3 times to switch through all 3 spectator modes. if you get to the in-eye view again, the weapons would be displayed.
I don't know why this happens occasionally. m_bDrawViewmodel is true all the time last time i checked.
