It seems you don't know the existence of condition "Trigger once". Put it after your main condition.

I did not. I do now. Thank you.

I don't know how to make an event like that. I can't set it to trigger on compare instance variable. Does anyone have a suggestion?

I found the issue I am having after looking at the debug screen. Essentially I don't have a one-off event to trigger the music. The boss fight starts once a particular invisible sprite is on screen, since the screen moves forward at a steady pace. This sets a gamestate global variable to 3. If I set the music to start on compare variable, it keeps starting every tick. If I set it to start while the sprite is on screen, same thing. I have to find a way to trigger the audio to play just once, not a continuous condition.

I can't post URLs until I reach a certain amount of reputation, unfortunately.

That being said, I do have my music in the correct folders. I've even tried preloading it on the start of the layout. I know the song plays, because for some reason, it triggers for the wrong event, and I can hear it. I just can't get it to trigger when the boss fight starts.

Thanks. Someone had mentioned something along those lines here at school, but I wasn't sure what they meant. I'll ask around about it.

Is it possible to get more than 100 events with the free version? I'm a student taking video game programming and design, and the first engine we learn is Construct 2. We have to design a game in the first term using Construct 2, and I have run into the sad state of removing features from my game to make room for a boss fight (which is required by the class). I had way more ideas, including more power-ups, additional enemies, and even cheat codes, but unfortunately, with 100 events, I'm quite limited with what I can produce.

Since we only spend one term on Construct, I'm not sure whether I want to buy a license just yet, student life has me pinching pennies already. I would just like to be able to put a polish on my game before calling it complete.

Thanks!

Darn, looks like I can't post a link to my game...

I have a problem with a project I am doing for school. I am almost finished, except for the music for the boss fight. For some reason, the song I added, in this case "Ultraviolence", doesn't play. It doesn't matter what kind of logic I use to trigger it, I can't get it to play. And what's worse is sometimes it actually starts playing after the game goes back to the title screen.

Here is a copy of my project, the song is located at event 66.

I have tried everything, and I can't figure out why everything else works, except this.
