iOS Help with reasoning logic

Hello,
I'm trying to work out how to do this in my head and I'm stuck. I have a View containing 15 different UIImageViews (5 by 3) where each UIImageView shows a flipbook style animation. Covering each UIImageView there is a UIButton that when touched will become hidden revealing the new animation while ending the first animation. I only want up to 5 animation loops playing at a time (one per row). If a button is pushed selecting another animation to begin, that animation should begin only after the currently playing animation in that row is complete. "L1-L5"(below) are UILabel's I'm using to show which animations to play based on a number. Here is what I have so far:

Code:

- (IBAction)lighton1{
L1.text=@"1";}
- (IBAction)lighton2{
L1.text=@"2";}
- (IBAction)lighton3{
L1.text=@"3";}
- (IBAction)lighton4{
L2.text=@"1";}
- (IBAction)lighton5{
L2.text=@"2";}
- (IBAction)lighton6{
L2.text=@"3";}
- (IBAction)lighton7{
L3.text=@"1";}
- (IBAction)lighton8{
L3.text=@"2";}
- (IBAction)lighton9{
L3.text=@"3";}
- (IBAction)lighton10{
L4.text=@"1";}
- (IBAction)lighton11{
L4.text=@"2";}
- (IBAction)lighton12{
L4.text=@"3";}
- (IBAction)lighton13{
L5.text=@"1";}
- (IBAction)lighton14{
L5.text=@"2";}
- (IBAction)lighton15{
L5.text=@"3";}

- (void)animateImages{
	
	UIImage *Image1 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy1e.png"];
	UIImage *Image2 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy1f.png"];
	UIImage *Image3 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy1g.png"];
	UIImage *Image4 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy1h.png"];
	UIImage *Image5 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2e.png"];
	UIImage *Image6 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2f.png"];
	UIImage *Image7 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2g.png"];
	UIImage *Image8 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2h.png"];
	UIImage *Image9 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2i.png"];

	else if(images.image == Image15){
		images.image = Image16;
		// I think I want some code here to start the new animation
	}
	else
		images.image = Image1;
	
}

	animationTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:(2.0/25.0) target:self selector:@selector(tick) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
	
	
    [super viewDidLoad];
}

How do I get the second animation to begin after the first one ends? I hope this kind of makes sense. Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Nick

Just a thought.

Can you raise a flag (say something like rowbusy1 to rowbusy5) when you start an animation (where you select Image1) in a given row and then drop the flag when it is done (where you say "I think I want some code here to start the new animation").

That way you can check the flag status before deciding whether to process the next UIbutton touch or not.

Thanks balamw!

I was thinking something similar and I just now got it to work. I had to create a few more labels but I'm pleased with the result.

Code:

- (IBAction)lighton1{
L1.text=@"1";
	
}

- (IBAction)lighton2{
L1.text=@"2";
	
}


- (void)animateImages{
	
	if (L2.text==@"1"){
	
	UIImage *Image1 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy1e.png"];
	UIImage *Image2 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy1f.png"];
	UIImage *Image3 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy1g.png"];
	UIImage *Image4 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy1h.png"];
	UIImage *Image5 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2e.png"];
	UIImage *Image6 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2f.png"];
	UIImage *Image7 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2g.png"];
	UIImage *Image8 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2h.png"];
	UIImage *Image9 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2i.png"];
	UIImage *Image10 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2j.png"];
	UIImage *Image11 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2k.png"];
	UIImage *Image12 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2l.png"];
	UIImage *Image13 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2m.png"];
	UIImage *Image14 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playbanjoguy2n.png"];
