# Broadcast

Source: https://tehoclient.dev/modules/broadcast
SDK: 1.0.0

Broadcast tools are for tournament casters and observers: a team overlay that reads like a sports broadcast, and server-driven cameras that follow players.

## Observer HUD

```java
Observer.Builder hud = Observer.builder("Skyline Cup · Grand final").subtitle("Map 3 · Lighthouse");

hud.team("Red", 0xFF5555).score(2)
        .player(alexId, "Alex", 18, true, 4, "diamond_sword")
        .player(samId, "Sam", 0, false, 1, "bow");
hud.team("Blue", 0x4DA9FF).score(1)
        .player(jordanId, "Jordan", 12, true, 3, "iron_axe");

caster.broadcast().observer(hud.build());
caster.broadcast().observer(Observer.off());
```

Each player row takes a UUID, a name, health, whether they are alive, kills and the held item. Send it again whenever the score or a player changes.

## Follow cameras

```java
caster.broadcast().follow(alexId, BroadcastApi.Follow.ORBIT, 6, true);
caster.broadcast().follow(samId, BroadcastApi.Follow.FIRST_PERSON, 0, true);
caster.broadcast().stopFollowing();
```

Modes are `THIRD_PERSON`, `FIRST_PERSON` and `ORBIT`. The distance applies to third-person and orbit, and `smooth` eases between targets.

Pair it with [camera cutscenes](https://tehoclient.dev/modules/camera#cutscenes) for map fly-overs between rounds.
