Hi guys, I’m making a game and I want the character to respawn on a separate movieclip when he dies, but I can’t figure out what code to use.

I was thinking of using something like this:  
\_root.player.\_x  
\_root.player.\_y  
but instead of coordinates, I want to use the instance of the movieclip (spawn) so how would I do that?  
Thanks in advance.
