reset_target(3) 💅

okay so bestie, this page is from the Arcan Lua API, and we're talking about reset_target — it's giving "please go back to your starting state" energy, no cap.

🎀 NAME 🎀

reset_target — Request that a target resets to a known starting state.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

nil
reset_target( vid:targetid )
reset_target( .B )
reset_target( vid:targetid, bool:hard )

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so picture this: this function inserts an event into the target process linked to targetid, requesting that the process should be reset to an initial safe-state — and yes, that safe-state may or may not exist depending on the target, so it's lowkey "we'll try our best" vibes. but it's also trying to retain user created state/ contents. periodt.

if the hard argument is set, the target should return to as close as the initial start state on first execution as possible. like, maximum reset, full send, no crumbs left. 🔥

cute sign-off: this lil page comes from targetcontrol, dated October 2026, and it's the reset_target(3) manual page. bye bestie 🫶💖
