NEED HELP on restarting a scratch project?

I need help on restarting a project of mine, by clicking a sprite called restart. I need it to be when you click restart the green flag turns green, how do I do this?

Re: NEED HELP on restarting a scratch project?

You can't force the green flag to start but how about this.

<when[ restart  ]clicked>
<set{ All variables }to( defult ) >
<broadcast[ restart ] >

Now for all of the other scripts. Get rid of that green flag thing. You don't need it and replace it with this

<when I receive[ restart ] >
Do what ever

Just tell people to click on the restart object when they first play the game. maybe give it a different costum

<when green flag clicked>
<switch to costume[ Click here to start ]
<wait until> <<  <mouse down?> <and> <touching[ mouse pointer ] >>
<switch to costume[ restart ] >

Find someone post count. Click posts under username. Find number of pages. Times that by 40 for min and 60 for max and you have a rough estimate of post count.

Actually, you can restart a program without replacing all the green flag blocks. Just simply, when you want it to restart, have it broadcast Scratch-StartClicked. It will start all the green flag scripts like you had clicked the green flag.

If you put a "broadcast restart" on a block that said "when I receive restart", you'll end up with variables stuck forever.
