I have been building a game for a while (nearly done) - But the game needs a replay button and its a big task.

I know the GC is dreadful in flash, but I wanted to know if there is a way to wipe EVERYTHING as if the flash app has just begun. Clearing memory, game data - I haven't to worry about game loading as its not really heavy on data.

Everything pretty much lives in a DataModel - but I fear if I just clear the all variables, I'll have pockets of orphaned memory.

Any forwarding idea would be great.

cheers guys.
