\n\/hsr spectate
\n“`
\nJoin a running game as spectator without playing.<\/p>\n
\nVault-based currency rewards for winners and kill bonuses. **Completely optional** – works with Vault, degrades gracefully without it.<\/p>\n
\n– **Base Reward**: 500 currency (configurable)
\n – Earned for winning (killing all hiders before time expires)<\/p>\n
\n – Added for each hider eliminated<\/p>\n
\n – Applies if game ends too quickly (default < 5 minutes)\n - Discourages overpowered seeker configurations\n\n#### Example Calculation\n```\nGame: 7 kills in 4 minutes\nBase: 500\nKills: 7 \u00d7 10 = 70\nPenalty: -50 (under 5 min threshold)\nTotal: 500 + 70 - 50 = 520 currency\n```\n\n#### Hider Rewards\n- **Survival Bonus**: Configurable (optional)\n- Earned for surviving full game duration\n\n### Configuration\nEdit `config.yml`:\n```yaml\neconomy:\n seeker-base-reward: 500 # Base winning reward\n bonus-per-kill: 10 # Per player found\n penalty-minimum-time: 5 # Minutes before penalty applies\n penalty-per-2min: 50 # Currency deducted per 2 minutes under time\n```\n\n### Without Vault\nIf Vault is not installed:\n```\n[WARNING] Vault not found! Economy rewards disabled.\n```\n- Plugin still works fully\n- All commands function normally\n- No currency exchanges occur\n- No errors or crashes\n\n### Recommended Economy Plugins\n- EssentialsX (most popular)\n- GriefPrevention\n- LiteBans\n- Towny\n- McMMO\n\n---\n\n## Glow Effects\n\n### Overview\nPeriodic visual indicator for hiders during late-game phases to increase difficulty and excitement.\n\n### How It Works\n- **Trigger**: Configured interval (default: 60 seconds into game)\n- **Activation**: All hiders glow for 5 seconds (configurable)\n- **Duration**: 5-second glow period\n- **Repeat**: Automatically resets at interval\n\n### Configuration\n```yaml\nmechanics:\n glow-interval: 60 # Seconds between glow activations\n glow-duration: 5 # Duration of glow in seconds\n```\n\n### Gameplay Impact\n- Helps dynamic games by preventing indefinite hiding\n- Makes late-game more challenging\n- Visual cue for extended games\n- Can be disabled by setting duration to 0\n\n### Disabled Glow\n```yaml\nmechanics:\n glow-interval: 0 # Disables glow entirely\n```\n\n---\n\n## Voting System\n\n### Overview\nDemocratic game start with configurable vote thresholds.\n\n### Voting Flow\n\n1. **Initiate Vote**\n ```\n \/hsr start
