Orb Names

So I was on Ottospark's server earlier, and the conversation wrangled around to setting names on cameras.
Port brought up this handy bit of code, which I made into an add-on for you to use.
Basically, it attaches a shape name (aka, name) above your orb that trails it, just like the names on your player.

Includes the following snazzy rtb prefs:
  • Enabled  - Is it enabled? Default to yes
  • [0]SpyNames - Are there names when you spy? Default to no


You wouldn't believe the trouble I had to go through to get this picture.

I had to get the first one to get the second one. Jesus christ, Pecon.

Enough coding lingo! It's making my brain hurt! :p

Anyways nice idea.

Ahahaha. I knew somebody there would do this.


This is nice and useful.

EDIT: Are you aware that you can sometimes see people's names when they are in spectator mode?
