Resetting a game

When the player of my game returns to the menu and starts a new game, all the conditions are left in the old state. Is there a way to return all conditions and values back to the initial state or do I have to reset them by hand (that imagination gives me the creeps)?

er no...

the trick is to create an autosave the first time the player launches a new game & then in the new game left click action you should add an if query: if autosave x exists then load autosave value else load x scene or scene of character or whatever you have it do upon launching a new game.

something along those lines.

* edit you could also add a condition/value to determine state of the game: has the game been launched; i.e: is the game currently in session.

Thanks! It works. That was quite simple. :-)

indeed

there's many a use for the autosave action part besides saving...

Aha? What else is it usable for? I'd love to learn more tricks/get inspired.

hmm...
* for checking if game has been launched before or is the first time.
* can be used for creating an achievement system by saving x autosave number for x achievement & it is global meaning the achievement would always show up in menu no matter what save the player loaded from; having said that, it's not exactly the most secure way of going about it.
* could be used for creating a custom save menu instead of using the vs save system.
* used to create the new game option
* etc - just use your imagination
