music problems

I have an event which triggers the music to play

ie if score>5
PlayMusic( titlemusic)
EndIf

It works but the music seem to trigger over and over again
reulting in a cumulative mess of noise. How can I fix this anyone

My guess is that because the score of 5 once reached is always 5 its triggering the music over and over again

;init
playing_title=false

...

if score>5 and playing_title=false
title_sound=playmusic(titlemusic)
playing_title=true
endif

Now this will work if you only want it to play once.

The title_sound varible allows you to check channel stuff ie,

if channelplaying(title_sound) then blah blah
or 
channelvolume(title_sound,volume#)

Just better really.

Thanks Rob. off to try it now.
Thats an example of flag is n't it
I already used one to open a door if certain conditions are met. Should have thought about the same mehtod here. ahh
well.

Rob had few probs with that. it only worked by deleting the first bit ie
playing_title=false

But it works now thats the main thing.

In that case you probably need to declare playing_title as global since I bet you're doing that if score>5 stuff in a function. Maybe!
