How to move Player between scenes with Unity3D
Hello everyone,
Thank you for coming over to my site. I really appreciate it. In this guide I want to show you how you can load multiple scenes and spawn your main player in and out of the scenes. I have some issue with moving my character between scenes, so I wanted to share my solution.
This guide will help with the following issues:
- Loading player into scenes
- How to load character between scenes
- loading scenes with player location.
Scripts below ( use video for explanation)
Startup Script:
using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;
using UnityEngine;
public class Startup : MonoBehaviour
{
void Start()
{
StartCoroutine(startingGame());
}
IEnumerator startingGame()
{
yield return new WaitForSeconds(4);
SceneManager.LoadScene("Lvl1");
}
}
Leaving scene script:
using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;
using UnityEngine;
public class LeaveScene : MonoBehaviour
{
public string ScToLoad;
private void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
{
if (other.CompareTag("Player"))
{
Destroy(other.gameObject);
SceneManager.LoadScene(ScToLoad);
}
}
}
Spanpoint prefab script:
using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;
using UnityEngine;
public class spawnpoint : MonoBehaviour
{
private Transform SpawnOutLocation;
public string ScToLoad;
// Start is called before the first frame update
void Start()
{
SpawnOutLocation = this.gameObject.transform.GetChild(0);
}
private void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
{
if (other.CompareTag("Player"))
{
//code here the location of where to come back to SpawnOutLocation
Destroy(other.gameObject);
SpawnManager.SharedInstance.SetSpawn(SpawnOutLocation.position);
SceneManager.LoadScene(ScToLoad);
}
}
}
Singleton SpawnManager:
using UnityEngine;
public class SpawnManager : MonoBehaviour
{
public static SpawnManager SharedInstance { get; private set; }
public GameObject DefaultPlayer;
private Transform defaultPoint;
private Vector3 spawnlocation;
private bool SetPoint;
public void SetSpawn(Vector3 x)
{
SetPoint = true;
spawnlocation = x;
}
private void Awake()
{
if (SharedInstance == null)
{
SharedInstance = this;
DontDestroyOnLoad(gameObject);
}
else Destroy(gameObject);
}
private void OnLevelWasLoaded(int level)
{
print(spawnlocation);
if(level > 1)
{
Transform temp = GameObject.Find("SpawnHere").transform;
Instantiate(DefaultPlayer, temp.position, Quaternion.identity);
}
if(level == 1)
{
if (!SetPoint)
{
Debug.Log("No set location - Will Spawn at Defualt");
spawnAtStart();
}
else
{
spawnAtSetlocation();
}
}
}
void spawnAtSetlocation()
{
Debug.Log("Done spwaning at set location");
Instantiate(DefaultPlayer, spawnlocation, Quaternion.identity);
SetPoint = false;
}
void spawnAtStart()
{
defaultPoint = GameObject.Find("DefaultPoint").transform;
Instantiate(DefaultPlayer, defaultPoint.position, defaultPoint.rotation);
}
}
