Legacy GM Music files not playing properly

[FamousRob]

Hi folks,

I've put a bunch of music files into my game for different levels - but for some reason it will only play one of them.
I had it set to pick one at random, and it would ALWAYS play the same one.
I just did it so I could press a key to pick a song, and it still only plays that song.

I've checked, and each sound reference has the correct MP3 file, and they playback within the 'edit sound' box.
Code used below for music select, 'control_music' is the only one that plays - even if I press a button marked for one of the other files!

if keyboard_check(1) && musicplay=0
{audio_play_sound(control_music,0,y);
audio_sound_gain(control_music, 0.3, 0);
musicplay=1}

if keyboard_check(2) && musicplay=0
{audio_play_sound(music_mega1,0,y);
audio_sound_gain(music_mega1, 0.3, 0);
musicplay=1}

if keyboard_check(3) && musicplay=0
{audio_play_sound(music_mega2,0,y);
audio_sound_gain(music_mega2, 0.3, 0);
musicplay=1}

if keyboard_check(4) && musicplay=0
{audio_play_sound(music_rock1,0,y);
audio_sound_gain(music_rock1, 0.3, 0);
musicplay=1}

if keyboard_check(5) && musicplay=0
{audio_play_sound(music_sawish,0,y);
audio_sound_gain(music_sawish, 0.3, 0);
musicplay=1}

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks in advance!

Use ord("#") for top row numbers.

Use vk_numpad# for number pad.

Also, when you had it set to random, it always played the same one because GameMaker always uses the same seed every run to make debugging easier, so it will always pick the same one. To make it truly random call

randomize() ;

At game start to get a random seed for a truly random choice.
