UISpriteAnimation frame rate

[Nicky]

I'm doing a countdown animation with 24 sprites that are supposed to animate completely for every second in the countdown. The FPS is also set at 24.

I have already set up the animation to play, but somehow the sprites only play til about frame 18. I checked that the scene FPS fluctuates around 50 to 100. How do I make sure that it plays up til frame 24 for every second that passes?

Thanks in advance for any input.

1. UISpriteAnimation SpriteCountdown;
2. UILabel LabelCountdown;
3.  
4.                 public IEnumerator StartCountdown(int seconds) {
5.                         SpriteCountdown.ResetToBeginning();
6.                         SpriteCountdown.Play();
7.                         LabelCountdown.text = seconds.ToString();
8.                         for (int i=seconds;i>=0;i--) {
9.                                 yield return new WaitForSeconds(1);
10.                                 LabelCountdown.text = i.ToString();
11.                                 if (i>0) {
12.                                         SpriteCountdown.ResetToBeginning();
13.                                         SpriteCountdown.Play();
14.                                 }
15.                                 else {
16.                                         SpriteCountdown.Pause();
17.                                 }
18.                         }
19.                 }
20.

If you're using SpriteAnimation it should handle itself.

1. void StartAnimation()
2. {
3. mySpriteAni.framesPerSecond = 24;
4. mySpriteAni.Play();
5. }
6.  

Just remember to have the reference to mySpriteAni set to the UISpriteAnimation.

Thanks! Setting the fps before each Play() did the trick.

I wonder what the "Framerate" property in the inspector for then?
