changing scenes

hi,
how would i make an actor go to a different scene than be able to go back to the previous scene and be in the position where the actor left the scene?

You would need some game real attributes lets call them Scene1X and Scene1Y.

When you leave the scene change these for the X and Y of your actor (change attribute game.Scene1X to self.position.X (do the same for Y) and its a good idea to have an actor that controls all this in every scene (i usually make a controller actor and position it off screen) that changes self.position.X to game.Scene1X then when you re-enter the scenes the actor will be in the same place as it was before it left.

Nevermind I seemed to have worked it out so would you have a sceneX and sceneY real attribute for every scene I want it to remember where I left?

Just made a quick video for you that should help...

Note i unlocked the forward and back actors in the scene to access the current.scene.layers.hero X & Y but there's a few other ways to do it depending what your set up is.

thanks heaps for that. thats pretty much the way i did it but a bit messier haha accept my actor goes into a door so i had to minus 10 from self position y so that when i went back into the scene i didn't keep landing on the door

cheers
