How to make other objects target an instantiated object?

[system]

Is there a way to make a player object respawn after death and not be called a clone, or is that just the way it’s handled in the engine?

What I need to do is, once the player object is respawned/ instantiated, have enemies set the object to its target and also the camera to its target, and I don’t know how to make that work right. Not even in Java, which is what I’m using.

Maybe you do not want to destroy your object in the first place, only deactivate (and not render)? On respawn you re-activate it again and all the references should still work.
