You had the ability to set a brand new character to match the area of map you were testing, without having to build him up through the preceding zones, for example. There are codes to change the size of the character, so you can check the clearance for doorways, passages etc. as well as thing like toggles for UI elements that might obscure items you're testing. Making a character invulnerable is also useful when you're testing new animations for the monster attacks, as you can them play over and over without having to fight back. And so on ...
