This is very similar and just another way to do it. It should work but may need to be tweaked.

Global TotalSprites% = 0

Const maxsprites% = 40

IF TimeToSpawn = True and TotalSprites% < maxsprites% THEN

  IF TotalSprites% <= (maxsprites% - 5) THEN
  
    tmp% = Rnd(1,5)
    SpawnSprites(tmp%)
    TotalSprites% = TotalSprites% + tmp%

  ELSE

    tmp% = Rnd(1, maxsprites% - TotalSprites%)
    SpawnSprites(tmp%)
    TotalSprites% = TotalSprites% + tmp%

  ENDIF
