"Restart" menu item #47

Closed erkyrath closed 8 years ago

erkyrath commented 8 years ago

Once autosave is up, we'll need a way to say "Restart and ignore the autosave". (A bug in the autosave/autorestore code might lead to the game crashing every time you launch it. That's bad.)

This might as well be a general "Restart Game" menu item. (With a confirmation dialog.)

In, with the label "Reset Game".

There's a corner case with games that do autosave at the game-code level, e.g. BTYT. In such a game, you have to use the in-game reset command. Possibly the menu option should wipe data files too? But that seems harsh for Counterfeit Monkey's achievements file. Maybe add an extra button for "scrub data".
