CREATE_PLAYER

This opcode spawns the player character into the game world. The player character is the character that you control in the game (Claude in GTA III, Tommy Vercetti in Vice City, Carl Johnson in San Andreas, etc.) This opcode is required in order to start a new game but is only needed to run once. Although not recommended, using this opcode again will respawn the player character and reassign control to the new character (as seen on the picture). The old character will not despawn but you still have some control of old player character(s).
