Spectator mode is a game mode which allows you to fly around to watch the world without interacting with it. From 1.8 onwards spectator mode can be entered by using the command "/gamemode 3".

Features

While in spectator mode you can fly, clip through blocks and entities, cannot interact with blocks, and cannot trigger spawners.

Spectators are always flying. They cannot stop flying by landing, as the player will just go through the blocks. The mouse scroll wheel, the sprint key, and the slowness and swiftness effects all affect the flying speed.

You can move through blocks, entities, and other players. Spectators are not noticed by mobs, and do not trigger spawners or spawning, and do not prevent mob despawning.

While in spectator mode you cannot take damage, as all blows go through you. Lava, drowning, fire, and suffocation also do not affect you. However, you can take damage from the void or the /kill command.

If you open your inventory, you cannot interact with any of the items in it. Likewise, viewing GUIs is possible, but it is not possible to interact with them. You also cannot pick any item up. Items in your inventory cannot be used.

If you click a number on your keyboard, you can teleport to a specific player on that server, or you can teleport to a team member. Just click either 1 or 2 to select one. Even though this is usually useless on a singleplayer world, there will be more commands in the future.

If you left click on a mob, you take their view. Your position is locked to that of the mobs, and your POV moves in accordance with the mob. Viewing oneself while spectating from an entity's point-of-view using F5 shows the entity. Pressing the dismount key (⇧ Shift by default) returns the player to flying mode. Certain mobs also apply a shader while looking from their point-of-view. This filters how the world is portrayed to the spectator. For instance:

Entity Filter
Creeper Green tinted vision
Enderman Inverted view
Spider Octuple vision and a high FOV

Spectators can see other spectators and invisible mobs, as well as themselves using F5. Spectators appear as a translucent disembodied head, and the selected item from the hotbar is also visible. Invisible mobs appear translucent, like when viewing a invisible ally with /scoreboard teams option <team> seeFriendlyInvisibles set to true.

You can also go in spectator mode with armor.

A '''gold ingot''' is a [[metal]] ingot used to craft various [[item]]s, and also used as currency for [[bartering]] with [[piglin]]s.

== Obtaining ==
Gold ingots are mainly obtained by smelting [[raw gold]], [[gold ore]] and [[nether gold ore]], or just mining nether gold ore, dropping gold nuggets. Gold generates more frequently in [[badlands]] biomes.

=== Mob loot ===

[[Zombified piglin]]s have a 2.5% ({{frac|1|40}}) chance of dropping a gold ingot if killed by a player or tamed wolf. The chance is increased by 1% per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 5.5% with Looting III.

=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|gold-ingot}}

== Usage ==

=== Crafting ingredient===

As a material for weapons, tools, and armor, gold is not a straight upgrade from iron (except in the case of [[Horse Armor|horse armor]]). Gold has a higher mining speed and enchantability than any other material, but attack power and durability is less.

{{crafting usage}}

=== Trading ===

Apprentice-level cleric [[Villager|villagers]] buy 3 gold ingots for an [[emerald]] as part of their trade.

=== Repairing ===

Golden [[helmet]]s, [[chestplate]]s, [[leggings]], [[boots]], [[sword]]s, [[pickaxe]]s, [[axe]]s, [[hoe]]s and [[shovel]]s can be [[item repair|repaired]] with gold ingots in an [[anvil]].

=== Bartering ===
{{main|Bartering}}
[[Piglin]]s throw the player [[Bartering#Mechanics|item(s)]] if the player throws or {{ctrl|uses}} a gold ingot on them.

=== Beacons ===

Gold ingots can be used to select powers from a [[beacon]]. The player must select one of the available powers, and then insert an ingot in the item slot. 

A gold ingot can be substituted for an [[iron ingot]] or [[netherite ingot]], an [[emerald]], or a [[diamond]].

January 27, 2014Dinnerbone tweeted about trying out spectator mode.
14w05aSpectator mode added.
14w06aAdded hot key for player outlines
14w18aSpectator presence no longer prevents mob despawning.
14w19aThe inventory hotbar is replaced with a commands window including the ability to teleport to other players or teams.
14w20aAdjusting fly speed of spectator mode now works vertically too.

Trivia

  • Using /give on a spectator will cause the item(s) to drop at their location.
  • Player selectors (in commands) will target spectators
  • If you put a pumpkin on your head before going into spectator mode then when you enter it your vision is still filtered even when you enter the view of a mob.
  • There is a world type where you can only be on spectator mode.This mode can be used to see what blocks look like in texture packs.
