Hey I’m trying to figure out how I would create a character selection screen, where each player picks a character while in the lobby before the game starts and then the game spawns their pick when the game starts on a different map. Im trying to save the picked character class in the player state, …

Looks like the Server is spawning a character for the client. Since server’s game instance has red character, both will be red. Try a branch with a “Is Local Player Controller” node before the cast on BeginPlay, and only set/spawn the selected character if true.

The GameInstance class is where you will handle loading maps and any persistent data. Everything else gets destroyed when a new level is loaded:
