Code: Select all
LoadGame("your_project_file_name");

But you can do that only after you export your game :D

That's strange...
Are you sure, you have :
1. changed the "your_project_file_name" into your actual project name? in this case your exported game file name
2. exported your project into windows executable or any other executable?

also i haven't have a title screen yet, but i think that script will take me to the title screen rather than the beginning of the level. my game will have a title screen in the future, i want when i die in a level, it restart again at that level and not the title screen. and thanks for your reply. i have been looking for the answer on the forum , i think it is more complicated than just one script to make that command.


update*** yeah so i try it ur way, and it work fine, my concern now is if i were to add a title screen, will it take me back to the title screen after i die? if yes, is there a way i can make it restart at the level i die, thank alot.
