Hey there, cheers for reading my post. I have written a simple function that should check if a bunch of other sound objects are playing and then play the sound object it is targeted at when the other sounds have finished by triggering the function again. I am storing whether the other sounds are playing in boolean variables. For some reason my code isn’t working and I can’t for the life of me figure out why. If someone would have a look that woulde be excellent. Thanks!

```auto
function PlayNumber(no) {
    trace("Play Number Called");
    if (soundOn) {
        if (welcomePlaying) {
            trace("welcomePlaying");
            Welcome.onSoundComplete = function() {
                welcomePlaying = false;
                trace("welcome finished")
                PlayNumber(no);
            };
        } else if (fHPlaying) {
            trace("FHPlaying");
            FHStart.onSoundComplete = function() {
                fHPlaying = false;
                PlayNumber(no);
            };
        } else if (linePlaying) {
            trace("line PLaying");
            LineStart.onSoundComplete = function() {
                PlayNumber(no);
            };
        } else if (numberPlaying) {
            trace("number Playing");
            numbers[lastNumber].onSoundComplete = function() {
                PlayNumber(no);
            };
        } else {
            trace("nothing playing");
            numbers[no].start();
            numberPlaying = true;
            numbers[no].onSoundComplete = function() {
                numberPlaying = false;
            };
        }
    }
}

function playWelcome(){
    welcome.start()
    welcomePaying = true;
    welcome.onSoundFinished = function(){
        welcomePLaying = false;

    }
}
