Player Respawn

Respawning is returning players back into an active game after they have died in-game.

This page explains how to detect when a player has been eliminated and respawning them in specific locations, called Spawn Points.

• Place On Actor Eliminated Node
• Place Per Player Timer Node
• Place Spawn Player Node
• Place Player Spawn Point
• Link On Player Eliminated Node to Per Player Timer Node
  • On Actor Eliminated → Start
  • Killed by PlayerID → PlayerID Reference
• Link Per Player Timer Node to Spawn Player Node
  • On Finished → Spawn Player
  • PlayerID Reference → PlayerID Reference
• Select the Per Player Timer Node and untick Loop
  • We want the timer to only run once
• Player Spawn Point IDs
  • Add an ID to the Player Spawn Point Node, for example: Spawn Point A
  • If you want this Spawn point to be the initial Spawn point, tick the box: Initial Spawn Point in the attributes panel
• Place a String Node
  • Change the Default String field to match the Player Spawn Point ID you just added. In our example: Spawn Point A
  • Set Automatically Send Value to On Game Start
• Link String to Spawn Player Node
  • Outputted String → Spawn Point ID
