Instead of just dragging health pickups into the level and having a set amount of health pickups for the entirety of a single game, here’s how I created a respawn system for the health pickups so that they deactivate after being picked up and reactivate after a certain amount of time.

Here is the code in the disable pickup function:
And here is the code for the activate pickup function that is called at the end of the timer:
