executing a method mutiple time per loop

Unity Engine

Hi guys i was wondering if there is a better way to do the following:

void Update()
{
   if (this.count < this.max_count)
     {
          executeMehod();
          executeMehod();
          executeMehod();
     }
}

void executeMehod()
{
     //Do some stuff here. Spawn 200-300 sprites here
     this.count++;
}

Basically, my problem is when I do a for loop in Start() the game seems to freeze for some time. so I loop through array from Update(), which is only as fast as the current FPS. But with the above code, I can loop through a array 3 times faster and the game doesn’t temporarily freeze,like when using a for loop. So is there a better way to do this?

for (int i = 0; i < max_count; i++) {
    ExecuteMethod();
}

Thank you Eric. Any way i can do this using coroutines?

Just call a coroutine in the loop

Update() function is a engine coroutine, manage by MonoBehaviour class.

If you have only one task, you can write code-script (class child of MonoBehaviour):

void Update(){

if(this.count<this.max_count) {

//Call to function or method

} else this.enabled=false; //Or destroy gameObject or Component

}
