        VRCPlayerApi localPlayer = Networking.LocalPlayer;
        if (localPlayer == null || spawnTarget == null)
        {
            return;
        }

        localPlayer.TeleportTo(
            spawnTarget.position,
            spawnTarget.rotation,

Prefab Setup Notes

Import the prefab or script into a throwaway test scene before adding it to a live world. Confirm inspector references, ownership behavior, sync, triggers, UI hooks, and audio or object links before moving it into the production scene.

Testing Checklist

  • Test once as a local player and again with a second client or late joiner if the behavior can affect more than one player.
  • Confirm ownership, sync, trigger zones, UI references, and audio or object references are assigned intentionally.
  • Check desktop and VR interaction distance so players can actually use the feature in context.
  • Keep a backup of the scene before changing prefabs, UdonBehaviours, or serialized references.
