Oh boy, I don't even know where to start with this one...

Sheesh, this is going to be a pain.

I'm not sure how hard it'd be to code, but it'd be good if you could set a 15-20 block limit where a spectator can't physically go near the player.

So say X player was 25 blocks away, i'd only be able to move in 5-10 blocks towards him before I hit a boundary.

I had that in the final death match just a few mins ago.
2 spectators (probably 2 that joined to the game I assume) were standing in the middle, blocking arrows and sight.
Theyve been also very distracting.

i dont think a barrier would be much help... but it can be a temporary solution.

it leaves a challenge and when the death match starts you can just tp the spectators to the admin house to watch the death match.

Yea I guess tping spectators to a glass cage above or freezing them in place would be the best option.

not if you tp them above the middle slightly into the sky and simply freeze them there. Dunno if thats gonna be laggy, but at least they wont be straying around in between the fight

you can make it so they cant interact with entities since spectators can also push mobs.

EDIT: Tyler49er5 pointed this out to me
