Player Respawning Problem

Questions & Answers
1

Hello everyone, I am having a bit of a problem here. I have a script to respawn the player in my game after he dies, and It works, but when I die It spawn 2 players, then 3 then 4 and so on, and this obviously causes problems, so how do I fix this problem? Here is my code (the respawning part anyway)

function OnTriggerEnter (hit : Collider)

{

if (hit.gameObject.tag == "Hostile")
{
    Destroy(hit.gameObject);        
    Destroy(gameObject);
    dead = true;
}

if(dead)
{
    Instantiate(playerPrefab, gameObject.FindWithTag("Respawn").transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
}

}

Well, what you've got to do is set dead to be false after you re-spawn.

if(dead)
{
    Instantiate(playerPrefab, gameObject.FindWithTag("Respawn").transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
    setAlive();
}

function setAlive() {
    dead = false;
}

Hope this helps!
