Spawned actor linked to playerstart Question

Development Discussion Blueprint Visual Scripting
#1

How would i go about setting this up, I have playerstarts and my players will choose randomly and join or re spawn. This is a multiplayer setup, I would like to have the player spawn an actor, this actor would have blueprint to make that actor now the respawn location, instead of using those original playerstarts…

Confused on how to link that player spawned actor to only him, and not others, aswell as how to get the spawned actor to before the new personalized playerstart.

Is this possible with blueprints? Was thinking if each player has unique identifier could use that in playerstart tag to reference ?

not sure any ideas

Thanks -e

 */

APawn* SpawnDefaultPawnFor(AController* NewPlayer, AActor* StartSpot);

In the GameMode blueprint/class there’s a overridable function called “ChoosePlayerStart” and similar functions like this. Put your Spawn Transform in there.
