How to make a Visual C# program restart itself

Question

I made a game in Visual C#. It starts out with a welcome screen. After the game ends, it says "game over." Then I want the program to restart at the welcome screen like it was just started. How do I do that?

Answer 1

create a method to reset all variables and call the method used to start the game/display the start screen

Answer 2

Is this a serious question? Since you are coding in C#, have you looked at that language's syntax for loops? Things like while or for?

If neither works out for you, check out the GOTO statement - it is awesome (I know that - I used it a lot in my first Commodore C-64 programs back in 1985)! Just ignore the community content at the bottom of the MSDN page that the link above takes you to - the first person obviously does not know what he (or she) is talking about.

Answer 3

call Application.Restart();

Answer 4

public void RunMyGame()
{
    bool isFinish = false;
    while (!isFinish)
    {
        ShowWelcome();
        InitVars();
        PlayTheGame();
        // We reach here when the game is finished
        // Play again? 'Y' isFinish set to false then loop
        isFinish = PromptToPlayAgain();
    }
}

Does this help?
