How Should I setup My Music? Need Tips Please

JoshKahane

Hi

So my new game is level based and so every time the level is reset (in case you fail the level, which is bound to happen loads) the music gets stopped and restarted again. Ay ideas as to how I can make it so that this doesn't happen?

The music really adds something to the game, but any ideas?

Thanks.

Unfortunately, you cannot use Reset Scene if you want to keep the music playing.

You need to use Change Scene.

Keep track of the current scene with a global game attribute, called something like currentScene.

Then a set of Rules:

Rule
When game.currentScene = 1
Change Scene To: Level 1

Rule
When game.currentScene = 2
Change Scene To: Level 2

Etc...

Rather than reset Each scene, you will have to use the change scene behavior instead and select from the drop down menu the same scene you are in.

This will keep your music from restarting when you change any levels or scenes.

yes it works. put the music behavior in a scene prior to the first game scene - that may work.
