I wonder if the stack save preserves position.
For what it's worth, when I transition from overworld scene to my battle UI scene, I have to store the actor's position and then restore it when I load back to the overworld map. I'm not sure if there's another / better way to handle it, but that's what I'm doing when I restore the stack. I'd imagine that for a platformer / metroidvania it's a much bigger challenge since you could have a lot of enemies per scene to keep track of.
I will need to think through the positions piece of it. I can for certain say that the player position is preserved when saving/loading to/from the stack. I just need to verify all of the other actors. My initial thought was to rely on variable flags for enemy status. That way, I have 16 bits to work with and can limit everything to a single local variable. I don’t ever intend on exceeding that number of enemies per scene. And during scene load, it would check against each flag to determine whether to activate the actor or not.
