Plugin that spawns your Play Solo character wherever your camera was in Edit mode

Say you’re building in one area:

And then you go to build somewhere else (that stuff in the distance is where I was in the previous screenshot):

It’s always a good habit to regularly test out what you’re building in Play Solo so you can get a feel of how players will experience it and so you can make sure everything is scaled properly, but the spawn is all the way over in the first screenshot. How am I going to get my character to the area in the second screenshot? I’m likely building that far away so I don’t interfere with the first area, so moving it closer to where it’s touching isn’t a good option. I could add a teleport tool to the starterpack, but that seems like a workaround instead of a solution. So what is a good solution to this problem?

A plugin that spawns your character where you left off in Edit mode. I found myself building off in the distance a lot, and made a plugin a while back to do this, but I lost it when I changed computers since it was a local plugin. I recently started building again and found the need for that plugin, so I recreated it and made it public. You can download it here:

A solution for a problem I never articulated. Awesome.

Smart.

Just updated this to work with Team Create (didn’t initially work because this ran under the assumption that edit mode = IsServer & IsClient, and only the latter of the two is true for Team Create)

I’d take it but I already made this plugin for myself.
Nevertheless great idea : D

This is actually something we’re working on adding to default Studio
