I'm wanting to run an animation through 32 frames then when at frame 32 for the sprite to be deleted.

I have tried a few ways but with no luck, any help would be appreciated.
Some code I have tried below.

+ Code Snippet

 for  r = 1  to 32
      PlaySprite ( (explode[debris].id), 10, 0, 1, r )
      if r = 32 then   stopsprite  (explode[debris].id)
 next r

for d = 0 to debris
    debris = debris + 1
    if debris > 10 then debris = 1
        if GetSpriteExists(explode[debris].id)      
            z =   GetSpritePlaying (explode[debris].id)
            if z = 0 then deletesprite (explode[debris].id)
        endif
next d

Instead of using a for/next loop, you might try letting the animation just play, with the looping parameter set to zero, and use GetSpritePlaying() to check if it's still playing. If not, delete it, 'splode it, whatever.

Thanks for reply, I tried it that way first with no luck.

With both ways I either can get the animation to play and then stop on screen or the sprite to disapear before the animation is run.

Sounds easy enough as Rich Dersheimer says.

+ Code Snippet

playsprite(explode[debris].id, 10, 0, 1, 32 )
do
if getspriteplaying(explode[debris].id)=0
deletesprite(explode[debris].id)
endif
sync()
loop

Not tried it, but it should work.

I had put the code in the wrong place, I thought it would be something like that.

I should have posted the entire code you would have spotted it straight away. Another case of just walking away from your code and looking again some time later.
