respawn players?

[AiTechEye]

A simple way to respawn players like:

player:respawn()

and with or without static spawn point
player:move_to_spawn()

very needed when you need to move a player away.
like the player "disappear", eaten, maybe move from a protected area...

This would be very helpful, please look into this developers.

It was already added in 5.6.0-dev

why does respawning using player:respawn() keep player velocity? It should reset it, do you know of any workaround?

I don't know why it does that, but it's not hard to work around. Just set the player's velocity. From a quick look at the docs you can't use :set_velocity() on players, but it's okay, you can get the player's velocity, negate x, y and z, then use :add_velocity().

I've fixed it so far by doing this:

Code: Select all

player:add_player_velocity(-player:get_velocity())
