Scratch

Just do this:

when [space v] key pressed
play sound [GuitarChords1 v]
switch to costume [ballerina-b v]
wait (0.1) secs
switch to costume [ballerina-c v]
wait (0.1) secs
switch to costume [ballerina-b v]
wait (0.1) secs
switch to costume [ballerina-a v]

Hi,
I'm trying to animate a sprite while a sound is playing. I don't really want to have the loop hard coded because that would require a code change if the sound changes.

Below is the script so far but I know the reset of the PlayingMusic variable isn't right.

when (space) key pressed
set (PlayingMusic) to [1]
play sound (GuitarChords1)
forever if <(PlayingMusic) = [1]>
     switch to costume (ballerina-b)
     wait [0.1] secs
     switch to costume (ballerina-c)
     wait [0.1] secs
     switch to costume (ballerina-b)
     wait [0.1] secs
     switch to costume (ballerina-a)
     set (PlayingMusic) to [0]
end

Thanks.

The problem is that the forever if block checks the condition (if playingmusic=1) once, and then if true, will repeat forever. Try:

Forever
if (playingmusic=1)
do rest of code

A common misconception, it actually does the exact same thing.
If the sound is the same length as the animation, then you can just use BirdByte's script

^^^ This.

If the sound is not the same length, and you want it to be, then time the changing of the costumes differently.

Or, you could do this

when gf clicked// or whatever starts the animation
forever
if <(play sounds) = (1)>
play sound [music v]
end
when gf clicked
set [play music v] to (1)
animation
set [play music v] to (0)
stop all pinks//sounds
