Is there a way to snap to player while recording?

1. Select the person you are suspicious of...use the left mouse button to cycle through the players, remember only alive players are in that cycle so you may have to cycle through several times. You can reverse cycle using the right mouse button.
2. Once you have your subject, move to first person view using your "jump" key. First person view is where it looks like you are the one behind the gun, it's like your normal game play view.
3. You will have to re-select the person each time they die and re-spawn. The fast way to do this is when your subject dies, hold down your Tab key to view the player screen and find the subject. When the player is dead there is a white skull next to their name. When that skull disappears, they have re-spawned. Release the Tab key and left click your mouse once, this should immediately recapture your subject for the demo.
