    Is it possible to use a different starting character for different worlds? Every time I've attempted to do this it says only the first character can be dropped onto the screen.

    I'm going to go out on a limb and say the answer is no?

    No, at this time only the current selected character can be used in a world.

    @DeadlySeriousMedia just brainstorming but what about taking the player to a character select screen after every world? Is that even possible?

    @heathclose Essentially I was hoping to have 5 different games in one app. Each world is a different game but to do that I'd need to set up different characters for each world. Oh well. Maybe in the future.

    @DeadlySeriousMedia I've got an idea. What about once the player starts a world, the character hits immediately an action. You then just need to drop a different character image in the action and put the duration something like 9999. What do you think?

    Maybe make the character transparent and link using connection mode it to a different object for each world?
