Seriously. I swear I've seen this system somewhere on this forum. I've searched, but I came up with nothing.
I can't remember if it was a script, tutorial, or an event system or whatever.
If someone could point me to a system that calls a common event instead of the regular game over, I'd love you lots.

Ah, thanks MA. I knew I saw it somewhere.
