COPY/PASTE PARAMETERS

New in GM 0.11! Right click on a behaviour or component to copy. Then open an object, add the same behaviour or component, and right click it to paste identical parameter settings.

Build Singleplayer & Multiplayer Logic - about [SP] or [MP] behaviours or components

Checkpoint [MP]

Manages a player respawn to this object's location if it has been activated by the player before death. Activated many ways:

• Press E to interact with this object if the Message Required is set to Interact

• Set this object's Message Required as needed, trigger a variety of ways

Common Uses

• Avoid player frustration and keep players focused on adapting to new challenges ahead rather than repeating difficult or tedious gameplay already successfully completed.

• Avoid breaking an Experience's logical flow or narrative that could occur if players were to die and respawn by default at the Avatar's Portal (game start point).
