  Thanks alot. That solution seems simple but it works perfectly. Guess sometimes you don't see the most practical things too quickly. <img src="smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  Hello everybody,

  I am new to the whole construct-thing but I'm having loads of fun making my game and have already had quite some succes doing so.

  However now I can't seem to find an option to reset gvars. What i basically want to do:

  Player's spaceship dies once its gvar 'Shields' reches zero or below. Game switches to game over screen, now when I press the 'Resume' button I'd like the gvar 'SHields' to be reset to its initial value. Is there a way to do this?

  And if there is: Is there a way to alter a gvar's default value too?

  Situation: Starting Shield gvar is 4. Player buys upgrade for his shields, so gvar should be defaulted to 5 and after game over it needs to reset to 5 as opposed to 4 now.

  I hope people can decipher what I mean. <img src="smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  Thanks in advance for any help!
