Hello everyone

I used the tutorial code of Zaibatsu http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=153346&b=7and added a few extra functions (restart when you lose, pause and sound)
The sound is looping but when I pause the game it pause the sounds like I want it. But when I unpause the game it will resume it but it will stop looping it and I want to resume the sound where it has stopped and still keeping it looping

A second problem the happens is that after a while when running the game I get lag and my CPU usage will raise.

That's a bug - could you report it in the bug forum?

I'm not sure how well it will work, but you could check to see if the sound is still playing (SOUND PLAYING), and if not, use LOOP SOUND to restart it.

In the worst case, just stop the sound when pausing and start it with LOOP SOUND when unpausing - people aren't likely to worry too much about it when playing.

Ok your first solution didn't work
I then added this to my code

The pause worked well and looping never changed and kept standing on 1 so that it was indeed looping. But the sound stopped playing when the sound ended. If I press the pause button again and unpause it will restart playing the song but still no loop

Your second solution works fine

I reported it at the bug section
thnx
