Description (last modified by )
It would be nice if there was an option for observers to automatically control the camera without user interaction.
This can be accomplished by just focusing the camera on placed foundation and following the entities that received a command.
There might be a military and economic option, so that the viewer could restrict the camera to interesting events.
Requires the change-perspective tool for observers: #3168.

In r19843:
Fix observermode GUI for 1024x768.
Display the follow-player label only if it fits entirely (i.e. >= 1280x1024), otherwise display the checkbox only. Increase the size of the player dropdown for resolutions >= 1280x1024.

Details:
I've been using this patch in alpha 19 for months. It is really nice to see the build order and follow the decisions of the observed player. Some players even had suggested the same idea too.
