I am creating a minefield style game as a task and I am wondering if there is a quick easy way to restart my game. When the character walks on to a bomb, I have a message box pop up saying 'game over, try again?' with a Yes and No option. I want the No option to close the game and I want the Yes option to restart the game to its original state that it is opened in. Any ideas? This is the message box code when it executes:
private void checkBomb( int X, int Y)
{
if (bombs[X, Y])
{
this.BackColor = Color.Red;
downBtn.Enabled = false;
upBtn.Enabled = false;
leftBtn.Enabled = false;
rightBtn.Enabled = false;
showBombs();
// Dialog box with two buttons: yes and no.
//
DialogResult result1 = MessageBox.Show("Game Over! Try again?",
"Game Over",
MessageBoxButtons.YesNo);
}
else
{
countBombs(X, Y);
}
}
I think you would be able to do the following:
MessageBoxResult result = MessageBox.Show("Game Over! Try again?",
"Game Over",
MessageBoxButtons.YesNo);
if (result == MessageBoxResult.No)
{
System.Windows.Application.Current.Shutdown();
}
if (result == MessageBoxResult.Yes)
{
//Restart your game
}
