Spectator view lock is great in replay, but not in live game

Age of Empires II: DE II - Report a Bug

Game Version:

Issue:

When watching replay, the spectator view lock works really well. It also works on all players, which is a great improvement over older versions (in voobly it only works well on the owner of the replay point-of-view)

But when spectating live game it does not work that well - similar to watching non-replay-owner point-of-view in voobly.

Since DE has made it work really well for replay, I hope it will be an easy fix to bring it to live game as well.

Reproduction Steps:

Here’s how to reproduce the problem:

  1. Spectate any live game
  2. Turn on view lock on any player.
  3. Notice that the view does not really follow the player’s focus
