Reseting scene, but not the music?

Maike

When my main character dies, I want the scene to be reset (works fine), but the music starts again as well. I want the music to continue playing (which is different music for every scene) but the scene to reset. How?

Hi Maike, the only way I can think of is the following, although there's inevitably a small gap between the music pausing and starting up again:

Game attribute (boolean) called pauser for instance.
An actor outside of your screen, with the following:

When game.pauser is false
Play Music
Sound: -----
Otherwise
Play Music
Sound: Resume Current Music

and in your rules or button to start the level afresh:

When actor receives touch is pressed
when game.pauser is false
Change Attribute game.pauser to true

Pause Music
Change Scene
the same scene as your in

Hope it helps.
