I have two questions about Reseting Scene and Pausing Game

scuurpro

I have two questions the first one being How do I reset the Scene without reseting my Money my game deals with money and i do not want to reset that I just want to reset the Scene. So that I can Play Again my game is almost like a casino betting game.

My second question is how do I pause the game like candy crush I want to make it so that if you lose you cant play the game for 5 minutes as a penalty. I had a little Idea all share it with you guys let me know what you think So basically my thought process is let the user play the game My game type is betting so you could not lose ever. But if you do you have a 5 minute penalty where the game is paused. If they want to keep playing without the penalty they have to buy IAP for $.99 If you buy it once you never have that five minute wait again

The Reset Scene behavior does not alter the values of any game attributes or table cell values. So you can use either to store values that you don't want to reset.

Time penalties can be achieved using the device clock but (a) it's not simple to code this and (b) it can be overcome by changing the time on the device so people who may not want to pay to play may consider doing that.

Thanks for your help with the time penalties can you just point me in the right direction once I get a simple feel for it I ams sure I can figure it out.

There's an OSTimeDemo project file that shows how to work with time in GameSalad. I'll try to remember to post it later but if I forget, notify me or send me a private message.
