Hi @thebosser24,

Check the following example on how a body is being teleported once it reaches a certain point in space:

Sir?

and where do i put the scripts

Hello @thebosser24

You put it in your own script. Example: I want first person movement script. I will create a new one and say like ‘firstPersonMovement’

If the script is correct then it will work. If it is wrong it won’t.
But also you need to put the main scene there, so if you lets say want to teleport to a new level and it’s called new level, then you got to put in the rectangle the teleport script then say new level.

Avoid posting short messages @thebosser24. If you tell a little bit more about what you are trying to achieve and how your game is set up, it’s easier to help you.

First create a new entity with the name “TeleportPoint”. Set this entity on the right place in room two. Then create a new script for the rectangle and give it the name “Teleport”. Replace the code with the code below. Your rectangle and player need also a collider and a rigidbody. If you are done you can check the result. I have not tested this, so let me know the result.

var Teleport = pc.createScript('teleport');

// initialize code called once per entity
Teleport.prototype.initialize = function () {
    this.entity.collision.on('collisionstart', this.onCollisionStart, this);

    this.teleportPoint = this.app.root.findByName('TeleportPoint');
};

Teleport.prototype.onCollisionStart = function (result) {
    if (result.other.rigidbody) {
        result.other.rigidbody.teleport(this.teleportPoint.getPosition());
    }
};

    if (result.other.rigidbody) {
        result.other.rigidbody.teleport(this.teleportPoint.getPosition());
    }
};

This should help!

@Albertos
The code had errors and this code is error-free, tested.
