platforms in entity and respawns

[ABK]

Im making platform stage in my mod but i would like to use only platforms in entity but when i do that then when i respawn i fall into the hole, is there any way to recognize where platform is and respawn my character there ?
--
I see that there has to be real panel floor and engine recognizes it or does it recognize end of the hole and spawns character after it ?

 

[ABK]

yeah but how its done in patformers? they respawn character from the beginning or on last platform ?

 

[O Ilusionista]

Last plataform.

So i have it like that in my mod and it works nice but i think it spawns plauer 2 in last position of player 1 as well.

 

[O Ilusionista]

because you are using the same variable to store both players positions, no?

 

[ABK]

player 1 and 2 use the same variable.So last stored variable is used no matter if its created by player 1 or 2.

 

[O Ilusionista]

And what happens if both players dies at the same time? They would spawn at the same place.
I suggest you to use another variable for p2.

Its not advised, in any language, to use the same variable to different things.
You are making like this:

Var A = number of fruits
A = 15; bananas
A = 20; lemon

While both are fruits, they aren't of the same type.

nothing bad is happening its just if player 1 will be at the right side of the screen and playuer 2 on left side and player 1 will fal into the hole then he will appear where player 2 is if player 2 is in his idle animation , if hes not in idle then player 1 will appear where he was in idle last time I could change that tho but it doesnt bother me now
