## Declaration

```swift
class func repeatForever(_ action: SKAction) -> SKAction
```

## Parameters

- `action`: The action to execute.

## Return Value

Return Value A new action object.

## Discussion

Discussion When the action executes, the associated action runs to completion and then repeats. This action is reversible; it creates a new action that is the reverse of the specified action and then repeats it forever. note: The action to be repeated must have a non-instantaneous duration.
