Is it possible to have a quest continue like it normally would (at the last place visited with "continue here" checked) if you use end game and continue or die and continue, but then also have it start you somewhere else if you save and quit back to the menu and then reload the quest?

 

Edit: What I want to do is be able to load the game after quitting back to file select screen and be taken to the title screen, but if you die or continue normally you are taken to the last continue point.

This is how the Zelda 1 game over screen behaves - maybe it will help you:

With scripts, yes. There's an `onSaveLoad` slot which runs specifically when you load from the file select screen, so a script in that slot could change your respawn point.

How can I access that onSaveLoad slot?

you write a global script, and assign it to the `onSaveLoad` slot in the slot assign window after compiling.

Ok, so that "View Script Slots" window is opened by clicking the 'Slots' button at the bottom of the ZScript->Compile ZScript... window.  Thanks.
