Hi,

Could someone point out ways on how I could reload the frame?

so far, what I've done :

int more = JOptionPane.YES_OPTION;
more = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null,
            "BOOOoooM!!! Would you like to play again?", "", JOptionPane.YES_NO_OPTION);
 
if(more == JOptionPane.YES_OPTION){
	myFrame.setVisible(true);
}
else{
	myFrame.setVisible(false);
}

I'm not sure what I should do to reload "myFrame" again if the user click yes

Thanks

It doesn't need to be reloaded - it just needs to be reset. How to do that depends upon how you have structured the code that initializes it.

i'm not sure how to reset it
could you give me a simple example that could give me roughly the idea on how to use it?

thanks again

Like I said - it depends on your initialization code. There is not anything like a "reset()" method. You simply set your panels and controls back to whatever state they should have at the beginning of your game. If you post the code for "myFrame" we may be able to offer some more specific advice.

i could make a new method for reset, right?
but then, i have no idea what should i write in it lol

i tried making another method reset which does the same thing as method go

it works but i have to repeat typing the same codes for method reset as in go

is there any other way?

thanks

Just put the common code into it's own method separate from the code that creates and adds the components to the container.
