Background music pauses after going to a new scene Swift 3 SpriteKit

Question

On Swift 3 and SpriteKit, the music for the apple music app pauses every time I go to a new scene. Is there any way to continue running the music after going to a new scene?

Answer 1

By default the scene pauses when transitioning.

Create an SKTransition instance and pausesOutGoingScene to false , and present your scene with this transition

func presentNewScene(incomingScene:SKScene)
{
    let transition = SKTransition()
    transition.pausesOutGoingScene = false
    self.view!.presentScene(incomingScene,transition:transition)
}
