Did this ever get added?
Frames to go (1,2,3,4,5,4,3,2) etc.
I seem to recall a distant conversation about it, but before I make my own animation function, I thought I'd check if it exists undocumented.

it may be possible with the start and end frame
PlaySprite( iSpriteIndex, fFps, iLoop, iFromFrame, iToFrame )
play from 1 to lastframe
check if playing
play lastframe to 1
repeat

The cheap, entirely non-optimal, and resource-intensive way would be to build the ping pong right into your frame strip and just play the animation normally.

You could do that with AddSpriteAnimationFrame()

I guess sometimes its not being able to add the animations yourself

It's fine to just do the animation handler myself. I just seemed to remember a conversation about ping-pong animation and wondered if it was undocumented.
As it turns out, my animation uses multiple sets of 8 frames and switching between sets, I use a different count/offset.
No biggie, just wondered if it was ever put in.
