1. why dbLoopObject make game slow
dbLoopObject (ObId, startframe , endframe);

if there are more object using dbLoopObject ( ObId, startframe , endframe) it will more slow down..

but if use dbSetObjectFrame ( ObId, iframe );
or dbLoopObject ( ObId, 3, 3) // play only one frame
game will fast..

more animation frame more lag...

2. how to fix this....


3. why using dbLoopObject (1,5,5) why it not display same acting as using dbPlayObject ( 1,5,5)

for(i=0;i<50;i++)
{
dbLoopObject (i,0,30)
}
// very lag fps lowerthan 30

then i change to this
for(i=0;i<50;i++)
{
dbLoopObject (i,30,30)
}
// fps = 59!

and when use
dbPlayObject (i,30,30) it not play like frame 30 as dbLoopObject (i,30,30)
it act like frame 29.5 or 30.5 o.O

if post all code it more than 1000 line o.O
but the high cause is using dbLoopObject

This causes the object to start the loop 50 times that is why the FPS is so low

You need to call the section of the loop only once upon some action such as a key press
for example
within your main loop do a check for a keypress such as "r" then call the section of the animation that equates to run
