Trouble with music file and "play again" in Tetris game

[falloutboysimpleplan]

My game works fine, I'm just trying to go back after a while and add some stuff in. I would like to put in a music file that I have saved, it seems to work until it's "game over" then instead of going to that screen, the game just stops and the music keeps playing. When I had the music code out, the "game over" screen came up as supposed to.

I would also like to add a "play again" in the "game over" screen so players don't have to close and reopen the game to play again.

I am using Turing 4.1.1, can anyone help?

(Code should be attached)

You can replace this:

Turing:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%Music Plays%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %process playstuff     %loop         %gameOver := false         %Music.PlayFile ("Tetris.wav")         %exit when gameOver     %end loop %end playstuff %fork playstuff %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

With this:

Turing:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%Music Plays%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% process playstuff     loop         gameOver := false         Music.PlayFileLoop ("Tetris.wav")         exit when gameOver     end loop end playstuff fork playstuff

and the music file will start over every time it stops.

Also, for future reference, instead of putting % in front of every line, just do this to have an entire section of code be a comment:

Turing:

var the : int the := 10 /* comments here */ put the

even easier than that you can just do

Turing:

Music.PlayFileLoop ("songhere.jpg") % and to stop it Music.PlayFileStop % thats all you need

it doesnt get easier than that, plus you dont need a process

Oops
Monduman is right, I forgot to include the line to stop the file, and I was paying so little attention that I didn't realize you had it in a loop.

You do not need to put Music.PlayFileLoop in a loop, only call it once, as Monduman has done in his code.

It was simple after all! Thanks a lot for your help guys, the music works great!

your welcome glad to be of help

Would'nt you want to make the music file more flexible and keep the process ?

Turing:

process Music Music.PlayFileLoop ("music name.mp3") end Music fork music /* then use Music.PlayFileStop to stop it ? */

Because then its easyer to use where you need it. Say if you needed to change the file name.

Just wondering why you would get rid of it.

1) Processes are messy, and this one would be pointless (There's no need to fork a PlayFileLoop, a procedure would be more appropriate.)

2) Whether this is in a procedure or not, the call will still be one line. Technically you could use a parameter on a procedure to keep it flexible, however:

3) There's only one song in Tetris.
