How to make the player go into a different scene

So I watched a tutorial on how to make a platformer, but my scene is too small so I found the button “New Scene” But idk how to make the player go to that scene if anyone can help me that would be amazing! I also want it to be mobile.

The New Scene choice allows you to create a new scene and save it. You can manually test it by running the current new scene.

Switching scenes happens due to an event in your scene level such as clicking on a portal or your character hitting the edge of your scene

I would say watch a video such as https://youtu.be/RMdf60IAxY0?si=Ey5eFWWGiS4_quns

You can Google Godot switching scenes for more videos just find ones that are made for Godot 4

but like the person will just click it to go to a different scene and not go through the level first. And I may publish this game to the app store too!
And with that video I got a error that video is out dated and I’m making a platformer and I don’t want the person to change the scene right away or they is no point of the platformer

Hello, you can simply extend the platforms even beyond the border of the screen, where the character himself would actually walk, and then add a camera that would follow the character.

but when I run the game it is blank and how do I make it so it follows the character?

Try going to projects settings and opening the ‘run’ tab. Find the main scene parameter and select the scene the world is in. Make sure the player is placed within the world scene too, and in the player scene make sure there is a camera attached

This is my first reply on the forums so I hope I’m doing this right, and I’m on my phone so typos and weird/non-existent formatting lol.
