SOLVED stopping animation at the last frame

[acid_kat4000]

this is what my current code looks like:

if (image_index == 510)
{
image_speed == 0; (error message is appearing on this line)
}

im not sure what im doing wrong but the error message says: unnecessary expression image_speed used as a statement

You're using == instead of =

You're using == instead of =

righty, that fixed it, thx

That's a dangerous way of checking the image_index as if you've an image_speed less than 1 then it's likely that won't ever be true. I suggest using round(image_index)==510.

Yep, true. I should've mentioned that, too. I'd use if (image_index >= 510) here. Never use == unless you actually want to check whether a value EXACTLY equals something. Almost all of my comparisons are <= or >=

For this is does need to be exactly 510

Just try using

if (image_index >= 510) {
   image_speed = 0;
   image_index = 510;
}

And see if that fixes it.

510, whoa, hope that's not a hand drawn animation!
