Resetting and Getting A New Level?

[KevinTheHamster]

I was talking with one of my friends, and he mentioned to me there was a way of programming a game where, if you get a certain item in the game, and then reset the system, you could get an entirely new level. So, I thought I'd ask what all that would look like in terms of coding that (in batari Basic or however).

I'm sure this could be done with a flag and an if statement. Just make sure the flag is not cleared when the game is reset.

 

In Batari Basic, it might look something like this:

 

If collision (player0,object1) then flag{0}=1

 

If flag{0} then goto _hidden_level_loop

 

I do something like this in my game when you find the Easter Egg and when you beat the game.
