i want two loops going at once

Make one a subroutine.

If you want to count frames, look into the MAINCNT system variable. That will return the number of frames that have passed since SmileBASIC was started, and will continue counting up in the background.

gosub wont work

Replace GOTO @LOOP1 with RETURN and put GOTO @LOOP in line 9.

it still wont work so i guess ill have to use the maincnt variable

figured it out i combined the code into one loop

Oh, you already had GOTO @LOOP on line 7. You were supposed to put the GOSUB -inside- the main loop.
