    Hey everyone, I've been trying to figure out if there is a way to have a continue game button on the game over screen that will bring the player back to where they died and can be purchased using in game currency or real money?
    any help is appreciated
    thanks

    I have been messing around with them, I can set it that on the game over screen you can use a navigation button to take you back to where you died but there is no way to monetize with in game currency or real currency. you can monetize it with a purchases button but then it doesn't take you back to where you died.

    set an action as "set checkpoint" in your world. then on your game over screen or whatever screen you are using, use a lock button and set it to start checkpoint. also make sure you click auto follow and auto lock. once you have done that all you need to do is connect the button on the mind map to the world.

    you don't need a lock button to make a continue button. Just use a purchase button and select the restart checkpoing action in the option. Then choose video reward, per session or always on, and done.
    Now with 2.3.5 you even can make the entire UI disappear so continue button disappears after 4 seconds or so and redirects to the game over menu (use an event observer for that).

    Now we have it all.

    Does the Reward Video have to be a HeyZap Video? Or can it just be an Admob Interstitial?

    I haven't seen any change in that matter. So yeah, Heyzap or Appodeal it is for now. I guess this will stay like that until BB3 comes out.

    Why does the purchase button become black after used? I set it to rewarded video and per game usage to get 1 restart checkpoint. Once it is used, shouldn't it become invisible just like if we set it to Free or In-game currency or in-app purchase?

    Haha yes, in my opinion yes. I reported that to the BB team half a year back and just like 2 or 3 weeks back I insisted once more that it should work like that. It's ugly as hell like it is right now. Would definitely be a good thing if you can report it as well, the more people asking for it the faster it will get done. :)
