Ok well one proberly which is YOUR PROBLEM i assume is you have your code in the loop so the program thinks

OMG OMG OMG this crazy steve dude wants me to play this crap OK OK im doin it play oh wait it looped play again oh wait loop play again oh crap loop lets start again

messed up method

anywhoo its playing 1 frame and then the next loop hits restarting the loop. To solve this i would start a timer and if the timer isnt past say 5 seconds dont loop it

if timer() < 5 then x = 99
if x = 99 then play object 1, 30 99

i dont no if that helps BTW THATS NOT ACTAUL CODE WONT WORK WORTH A CRAP ITS EXAMPLE CODE THE TIMER ISNT RIGHT AT ALL

Loop Object in DBC is brokeded.


Do something like this:


dim LoopedObjs(100,2)
`your main loop
LoopObj(1,9,50)
do
CheckLoops()
loop


Animation looping functions
function LoopObj(obj, st, end)
for i=0 to 100

if LoopedObjs(i,0)=0
LoopedObjs(i,0)=obj
LoopedObjs(i,1)=st
LoopedObjs(i,2)=end
exit
endif

next i

PlayObject obj, st, end
endfunction


function CheckLoops()
for i = 0 to 100
if LoopedObjs(i,0)>0
if object playing(LoopedObjs(i,0))=0 then play object LoopedObjs(i,0), LoopedObjs(i,1), LoopedObjs(i,2)
endif
endif
next i
endfunction

Just stick the functions at the bottom below your END statement, put the DIM LoopedObjs(100,2) at the top, and in your main loop area where the statement is, put it as such(I'll assume you're using a DO loop, just for kicks and giggles, it doesn't matter what you use):

DO
rem blah dee blah your code and stuff

if distance#<500 and withinboundaries = 1
LoopObj(30,20,45)
endif

rem more blah dee blah

CheckLoops()
LOOP
