Reload/refresh a scene with transition?

Is there a way to refresh a scene with a transition (such as fading)?

reloadScene() doesn’t work for this because transitions are not supported.

Right now, I’m using a “mediator” scene that instantly calls gotoScene() (with a fade transition) to the previous scene, to create the illusion the scene was reloaded. Is there a more “proper” way to go about this? [import]uid: 159810 topic_id: 34051 reply_id: 334051[/import]

The way you are currently doing it is probably the best way to approach it for now.

In the new year I am going to be completely remaking storyboard from scratch and making these basic requirements easy to do without having to resort to workarounds. [import]uid: 84637 topic_id: 34051 reply_id: 135438[/import]

I needed something like this for my level select scene to do a slide transition between pages. I ended up having two copies of the scene and I alternate between the scenes. This work good for me as the code very short but having transition on reloadscene would be great [import]uid: 7911 topic_id: 34051 reply_id: 135446[/import]
