Character Loading Location

Question

I have a series of Levels. They are activated by walking through collision boxes which then loads the next scene(Pretty simple)

The problem I'm having is that when I load from "Scene 2" back to "Scene 1" it naturally spawns the character at the origional game starting location. I want it to spawn him right outside the door (the door that leads between scene 1 and 2)

I'm trying to work the script but I just don't know how to do it.

In your levels you should define spawn points at every "door". Then you can create a GameObject that "survives" Application.LoadLevel(). You can do this by calling GameObject.DontDestroyOnLoad(MyObject).
In that GO you could store something like lastLevel. Now if you load a new level you can look up last level and spawn the player at the correct spawn point.

Nothing i do seems to be working. I Understand the concept. But everything I try ends in the same results I'm having. Something's just not working. It's putting a big halt on my game project.

Can you describe what's happening or what exactly is not working? What's the result you are having?

I don't know exactly, I guess I just dont' know how to make spawn points, and then tell the system, "when you load Scene 1, from Scene 2, Place Character here, but when you load scene 1 from scene 3, place him here ins$$anonymous$$d.". That's pretty much exactly what I'm looking for at the moment.
