Best way to handle multiple player characters (switching players)

I have two player characters.

For example, PlayerA appears up until Scene 10, and Player B takes over starting from Scene 11. What would be the correct way to handle this?

Should I add a Player: Switch Action to the scene’s OnStart and enable Replace old Player’s position?

Or would it be better to set Player B’s Start Data in the Settings Manager so that they start in Scene 11? However, when I do that, PlayerA also appears in the scene. Even if PlayerB’s Start Data is set to Scene 11, do I still need to use the Player: Switch Action?

Thank you for any advice!

  • If the two Players don't appear together in the same scene, set Player B's Start Data to Scene 11, and then - at the end of Scene 10 - use the Player: Switch Action (with Replace old Player's position? unchecked) to switch to Player B in Scene 11, and leave Player A in Scene 10.

  • Thanks for the clarification!
