1)Currently have this problem of unable to stop spawn for my project.  
For loop has been inserted to serve its purpose but still no results appeared. I wan to make the spawn stop right after the clock goes to zero, and go to the next frame which is frame 2  
Hope someone can help me with the spawn problem.

2)Currently i need to set a method or function that can help me make the monkey face from maybe the sickness level of 10 up 1 level to 9 when correct objects has been clicked on which i dunno.  
Hope someone can help me with this reverse running of frames problem because i set the frames with names to run using array but do not know how to reverse the order of running.
