Forums / Questions and Answers / Restarting in protection

So I just restarted my character with the intent of playing on Talents, and was fairly sure that I had moved the drop-down menu to the correct world, and ended up in Zetamania, too late in the era to really be that competitive. Now it won't let me restart to move to Talents until I'm out of protection, at which point I will laready be behind in that world.

Why can't you restart in protection?

In the past I used to sometimes restart during protection. It still works as long as you haven't settled any city. The moment you do, the only possible way to restart during protection is to destroy all of your buildings.
