Only if you specifically create a GreenfootSound object. Then you can use the playLoop method.

How can you do this? Can you be more specific and clear? I am just a beginner and so I dont understand when you say those big computer words. Can you please explain it more simply?

The only "computer" word I used was method and you should know what that is. The other words you may not "know" are GreenfootSound (a class name) and playLoop (a method name). The class is provided by greenfoot and the method is in that class.

You create an object and give it a name using the format: ObjectType name = new ObjectType(); As an example: 
Counter counter = new Counter();
The right side creates a new Counter object. This object is then assigned to a variable called counter which, by the initializing Counter, is a new variable defined to only contain a Counter object. Instead of using something like the following: 
Greenfoot.playSound("bgmusic.mp3");
you would use something like this: 
GreenfootSound bgMusic = new GreenfootSound("bgmusic.mp3");
bgMusic.playLoop();

Greenfoot has supported mp3 for quite some time.

Please refer to the GreenfootSound API documentation to see what methods are available.

I also have another problem. I have many sounds that will play during a specific time but during the time my player shoots a sound is played but playing of that sound delays the entire program. Can you help me fix this?

Use the World class started method.

There is not much you can do if the sound can be played over itself (if one instance of the sound may not end before another instance of it starrts). If no instance of. it overlaps another, then you can place the GreenfootSound object in a static field. That way, the file read in once before being needed and does not have to be read each time the sound is played.
