Hey all,

Never used it before but I assumed in the self attribute "timer" was referring to a timer behavior you have set for your actor. I only have one timer in my actor. But it isn't resetting it, maybe because it is dealing with a change velocity and the velocity is still carrying over from when I put it back at its original XY position. But really I dont even know if that's what the attribute is referring too in the first place lol

    the self.time attribute is a counter that starts from the point the actor loads to the point it is destroyed. nothing to do with reseting timers you place in the actor

    You can use self.time to reset the time when you reset the scene. So, instead of using game.time to set up the equation for the timer use self.time and then you can do different times for different scenes. When you reset the scene it will reset the time.
