While using skipselect in the levels.txt with a player character, how can I make it play a different spawn animation instead of just using anim spawn? For instance, the player Cody is in skipselect as player 1. I know he can perform anim spawn or anim respawn in levels every time he has it. But what about changing it to one of the different (re)spawning animation(s) such as anim follow1?

Just figured out and started adding levels and set(s), as well as a few #defines (in case (for myself) of avoiding redundancy). I set certain custom intros in certain levels. (You really don't have to add #defines though, but it's your choice.) It works really great. I don't have to add a level spawn script tag in the level txt unless I use skipselect to the select screen or go without skipselect, or there is something necessary to do with it.

Code: 
#define RESPAWN openborconstant("ANI_RESPAWN") //#define {any_name_for_the_value} {value}
#define SPAWN openborconstant("ANI_SPAWN")

void main(){
    void self = getlocalvar("self");
    void aniID = getentityproperty(self, "animationid");
    int set = openborvariant("current_set");
    int...

Thank you so much, danno!

Edit: I just don't know which one I should mark as solution, either mine or danno's. Otherwise I let DC or any staff to choose.
