How to maintain player position between scenes?

Questions & Answers
1

For example, in Scene1 the player is located at (1,2,3) then the scene is changed to Scene2 and the player should be located at (1,2,3) in the new scene.

I figure I’ll need to get the player position first, then change scene, and then translate the player to that position, but I don’t know how I would store that position between scenes.

The best solution for this is to use DontDestroyOnLoad. This will keep the gameobject when transitioning to another scene.

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;

public class dontDestroy : MonoBehaviour {

    int scene = 1;

    void Update() {
        if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space)) {
            if (scene == 1) {
                SceneManager.LoadScene("Scene1");
                DontDestroyOnLoad(transform.gameObject);
                scene++;
            } else {
                SceneManager.LoadScene("Scene");
                scene--;
            }
        }
    }
}

Hello i will give you an easy solution but i don´t know if it is the best solution.

in the Start method in someone class in the player´s prefab write this lines of code.

void Start()
{
transform.position=new vector3(x,y,z);
}

(x,y,z) are starting point. I don´t know if it is usefull for you. If you need more about it ask and i will help you if is possible.

Cheers
