Question

Im trying to make a game for the iPhone that has background music.
So this is how it is laid out:
I have a main menu with music running in the background via AVAudioPlayer (I have made a custom method that gets called every time the view loads).
I have this about button, when you press it it “addSubview:aboutView” s and it does that fine, but then when I press the back button which “addSubview:mainView” s it goes back to the main menu, but plays the same music track, on top of the one thats already playing.
I have tried making a int that ++s every time the viewDidLoad is called thats in an if (someInt > 1){} but that int forgets its value every time, so it still duplicates the music.
Help!
I know this is simple, but I cannot seem to work it out, its just one of those days.

Answer 1

You should restructure your app.

For example this could be one:

App delegate
   |_ App Main View Controller
       |_ AVAudioPlayer
       |_ UINavigationController
            |_ Start screen
            |_ Screen #1
            |_ Screen #2
            |_ etc.
