Hey everyone, so here’s a game I made recently. Press A to enter buildings. However, each setting has a different piece of music, but it doesn’t change right away until the prevoius piece of music is FINISHED playing. Anyone know how to change that? Thanks so much ~ > **[Your Boy Group](https://arcade.makecode.com/S44222-93919-94103-41234)** > > Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade. ---

I am not very familiar with sound/melody, but hope this can help, before experts of this field have time. Then I tried your project and studied play/stop melody a little. - Every call “play melody()” return and go to next codes until it play complete, in other words, like “play until done”. - The “stop all sound” can work immediately. - But the next “play melody” in the forever did work, after the stop(), which is belong to last building/lobby still. So we need a mechinism that check the building/lobby change, after each one melody playing. Quit out the forever, if changed. And then enter again with new building melody list. So I changed following: - define melodies list and BPM in each building/lobby entering blocks - in the forever, save current building/lobby (the path in your case) - check it changing after each playing. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/4/4515965772054a23876ca880843c78a016c83c24.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/7/7d9bc2b170093fc502e7c8de85ff16e130468f33.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/2/2f06cf86415a4f4c2816e5bfef1763d106d03ce3.png) > **[Your Boy Group](https://arcade.makecode.com/43831-97484-96198-28609)** > > Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade. ---
