The animation looping control code is pretty confusing. The loop control allows to set start/end frames for the first iteration of the loop, and start/end frames for all other iterations together.
- Start defines a 0-based index of the first frame to play on the first iteration.
- End defines the amount of frames to play on the first iteration.
- LoopStart defines a 0-based index of the first frame for all following iterations.
- LoopEnd defines a 1-based index of the last frame for all but the first iterations. The first iteration will never play frames beyond this one, even if End is set to do so.
- LoopCount defines the total amount of iterations to play.
Example
If you imagine two animations with code like this:
[ANIMA]
Start=1
End=9
LoopStart=2
LoopEnd=10
LoopCount=-1
[ANIMB]
Start=3
End=5
LoopStart=3
LoopEnd=9
LoopCount=-1
, then the scheme on the right depicts the frames that will be played for ANIMA (upper/black scheme) and ANIMB (lower/blue scheme). Upper scale shows 0-based indices, lower scale shows 1-based indices.
