    Hello there, good people! Was playing around with setting up a new scene and realized that Creating-a-new-playable-scene wiki (though extremely helpful!) misses a few points. This thread is a suggestion of what to include.

    After you dragged
    EditorInitializer
    ,
    CameraSystem
    , and
    SpawnSystem
    to the newly created scene, added some geometry to walk by, one more step is required if you want to have Protagonist spawn right away. We need to set up "This SceneSO". To do that:

    1. Navigate to Assets -> ScriptableObjects -> SceneData -> WIP and duplicate
    TestingGround
    SO, name it the same way you named the scene, eg `Quests&Dialogues`


    2. Make sure that freshly created `Quests&Dialogues` SO has `Location` Scene Type and Scene Reference Points to your scene (Quests&Dialogues in my case).


    3. Back in your scene, click on
    EditorInitializer
    and select SO you just created as "This Scene SO"


    4. Hit Play and enjoy hacking!

    Pro Tip: You can also kill the default
    Main Camera
    as the actual camera will be instantiated on runtime.

    Pro Tip 2: Set
    SpawnSystem
    slightly above the ground to avoid poor Hamlet falling through it when you run the scene
