Spectator

Spectator mode is a game mode which allows you to fly around to watch the world without interacting with it. Spectator mode can be entered by using the command /gamemode spectator, /gamemode sp, or /gamemode 3.

Usage

Spectators can fly, clip through blocks and entities, and view invisible players.

Noclip

Spectators can move through blocks, entities, and other players. Spectators are not noticed by mobs, and do not trigger spawners or spawning, and do not prevent mob despawning. The Player can see any caves if they are underground. This makes it a really good way to find Generated Structures

Spectators cannot take damage, as all blows go through them. Lava, drowning, fire, and suffocation also do not affect them. However, they can take damage from the void or /kill.

Commands can still target spectators, including player selectors.

Flight

Spectators are always flying. They cannot stop flying by landing, as the player will just go through the blocks. The mouse scroll wheel, the sprint key, and the slowness and swiftness effects all affect the flying speed.

GUIs

If you open your inventory while in spectator mode, you cannot interact with any of the items in it. Likewise, viewing GUIs is possible, but it is not possible to interact with them. You also cannot pick any item up. Items in your inventory cannot be used.

If you click a number on your keyboard, you can teleport to a specific player on that server by pressing 1, or you can teleport to a team member by pressing 2.

Seeing invisible entities

Spectators can see other spectators and invisible mobs, as well as themselves using F5. Spectators appear as a translucent disembodied head, and the selected item from the hotbar is also visible. Invisible mobs appear translucent, like when viewing a invisible ally with /scoreboard teams option <team> seeFriendlyInvisibles set to true.

Mob view

A spectator can left click on a mob, to take its view. Their position is locked to that of the mobs, and their POV moves in accordance with the mob. Viewing oneself while spectating from an entity's point-of-view using F5 shows the entity. Pressing the dismount key (⇧ Shift by default) returns the player to flying mode.

Certain mobs also apply a shader while looking from their point-of-view. This filters how the world is portrayed to the spectator. Similar to the Super Secret Settings, if one presses F4, it removes the filter without dismounting the mob. Below is a table of mobs that have a filter.

Entity	Filter
Creeper	Green tinted vision
Enderman	Colors inverted
Spider	Quintuple vision, slight blurring, high FOV

Trivia

• If you put a pumpkin on your head before going into spectator mode then when you enter it your vision is still filtered even when you enter the view of a mob.
• Spectator mode allows you to view the perspective of an Ender Crystal, a Primed TNT block and any variety of minecart. Likewise, Spectator mode allows you to take the point of view of any block that can be created with the /summon command.
