{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
If you're using the **Mech Combat Kit**, you can set up the player by dragging the provided **Player\_MCK** prefab into the scene.
{% endhint %}

To create a new Player:

1. Create a new game object and add a **Game Agent** component.
2. Go to the inspector of the **Game Agent** component and check the *Is Player* checkbox

To check if a specific game agent is the player in code, use the following:

```
// Check if the game agent is a player
if (someGameAgent.IsPlayer)
{
    // Run code
}
```
