I've been working on this platformer beat em up-esque game for about a month now, and met my first infuriating bug with it. It's hard to explain because as far as I know it's inconsistent and nothing seems to directly cause it.
When you run out of health in game, the character becomes a "death" object, and flies off the screen before resetting the room after a couple seconds.
I wanna say 80% of the time it works normally. You'll respawn at start or at the checkpoint you tag. This problem doesn't even seem to exist in the current tutorial level.
When you die in the first level I have though, usually after getting to the end of it, one of a few things will happen:
Here's a clip of me experiencing one of these issues
Not included is after I stopped recording this is the pause menu was, again, functional despite the HUD being gone/inactive.
For the sake of debugging I have keys bound to kill all enemies and kill self.

- The room will restart normally. Nothing seems to be wrong
- The room will start normally, but after moving for a bit or falling, everything will disappear. HUD, character, enemies, everything. Even the debugger shows that everything just kinda vanishes. Sometimes will crash instead
- The game will just crash
- The room will restart, but nothing will be there. The view will pan up a bit (as if the character was still there), but nothing will be there. The debugger itself shows nothing except for maybe a few ground objects exists in the current room.
