GUI Restart Button Help

[Alexander Vinogradov]

Hi guy would really appreciate it if somebody could tell me how to make this restart button work. This is what I have so far. I have put the restart button code in red and bold...



package Game;

/**
*
* @author Sasha
*/
public class Buttons extends javax.swing.JPanel {

private GameWorld world;
private int restart;


public Buttons() {
restart = 1;
world = new GameWorld();


}

public Buttons(GameWorld world) {
this.world = world;
initComponents();
}

@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")


private void QuitButtonActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
System.exit(0);
}

private void PauseButtonActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
world.setPaused(true);
}

private void PlayButtonActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
world.setPaused(false);
}

private void RestartButtonActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
restart++;
world.start();
world = new GameWorld();

}


private javax.swing.JButton PauseButton;
private javax.swing.JButton PlayButton;
private javax.swing.JButton QuitButton;
private javax.swing.JButton RestartButton;




}

Welcome to the Ranch

Why are you creating a new Game object after the start() call? What does start() do?

Hi, and welcome to the 'Ranch!
Just a quick tip for future reference, if you're going to post some source code you should put it between code-tags, so it looks like this:

public class CodeTagsAreAwesome {
}

You can use the Code button in the Reply editor to add them, or manually: [code=java][/code]

I would have added code tags, only the code was not indented, so the benefit would not have been so obvious.
