I'm sure you all have noticed by now that when you press F2, klik games restart without even the slightest notification. So, I was wondering, how do you stop that from happening? Even the legendary Blackeye Software couldn't (or just didn't) do it... so I wonder if it's even possible.

even if you have disabled the game menu, pressing a key that corresponds to a shortcut from it will still perform the action.

so just edit the game menu and remove the F2 shortcut.

Yeah I was gonna say that pete, but he said the "legendary Blackeye software" couldnt do it, so I figured it was impossible. Looks like blackeye aint so great, no offense. lol

Ah, but the legendary Starfish Games can! Use the condition 'Menu option "New" selected' in an empty event. No other conditions, and no actions. Just that event. Voilá! Le problème est résolu!

You might want to stick it in the Global Events, too. That's what I did for Emulsion.
