How would you reset the layout , without changing the location of the player?

I'm making a game with checkpoints, and I want to restart the game(or reset the layout) after the player dies, but I want him to respawn at the checkpoint if he reaches one.

Set a global variable upon reaching a checkpoint.

On start of layout, check if global variable is set. If it is, position the player object accordingly.

Use Local Storage to persist across play sessions.

It worked, Thank you.
