RC PlayerList and Observer Mode

See the attached image.
The player's nickname has an inappropriate term in it.

Funny how much Utopia has changed.

I'll put in a support ticket to get it down later today.

Hmmm it should normally show on the RC player list no matter if the player is observer or not

It always does for me when I see someone go on observer. However, it is impossible to disconnect them.

What does it say when you try to disconnect the observer player ?

This happens, for me, at least.

The standard disconnect message comes up:
<Your Account> disconnects <Players Account> (...because of: "Reason if given")

But the character remains on client. Disconnecting an observer removes them from the player lists completely, but doesn't remove their client character.

Basically the same as what TSA said.

Their "ghost player" image remains in game. After 10 seconds or so they leave the playerlist but their ghost remains. Several minutes later they disappear and then generally come back and ask why we disconnected them.

Ok will be fixed with the next gserver update.
