From the manual:

Stop (audio clip)

AudioClip.Stop()

Stops all currently playing instances of this audio clip.

Example:

aExplosion.Play();
Wait(40);
aExplosion.Stop();

plays the aExplosion audio clip, waits 1 second and then stops it again.

Compatibility: Supported by AGS 3.2.0 and later versions.

See Also: AudioClip.Play

Stop (audio channel)
(Formerly known as StopAmbientSound, which is now obsolete)
(Formerly known as StopChannel, which is now obsolete)

AudioChannel.Stop()

Stops the sound that is currently playing on this audio channel.

Example:

AudioChannel *channel = aExplosion.Play();
Wait(40);
channel.Stop();

will start playing the aExplosion audio clip, wait for a second, then stop it.

Compatibility: Supported by AGS 3.2.0 and later versions.

So yeah, if your music is called "music",

Then you need:

Code: ags

music.Stop();

Use an IF condition if it's for any other character besides the player. If it's the player that leaves the room then add the code to before fade in in the next room script.

EDIT: Edited the code, to show proper AGS code + link to manual...

If you want every room to have its own music, then do this:
1. For every room create "OnLoad" event handler function.
2. In every such function place "aMyMusic.Play()".
By default music has only 1 channel, therefore any new music started will stop previous one.
