ActionScript 1/2 :: Randomly Choosing Next Marker To Jump To And Play?
Sep 16, 2009
I'm interested in understanding the ActionScript 2 code that will allow a random decision on the next marker to jump to. I have five markers on a time line and want the movie to stop after playing a sequence of elements, then randomly choose the next marker to jump to and play, this would continue forever.The goal is to communicate a few concepts without starting from the same concept every time in a linear manner.

We have hooked up a Kinect to Flash and using it to control an avatar inside Flash, then we added another player in the Kinect and control the avatar using both players. One arm and one leg each. Now the problem comes. We want to mix it up during a game we are making. So, we need a function on a timer that randomly selects an arm and a leg from each player. But we gotta be sure that we don't get both arms/legs from one player or vice versa.We thought about using the Array and using several math functions in order to get the final result, but I was hoping there was a better way?[code]

I've taken a few Flash classes, but this is the first I've really been exposed to hard coding things into the stage area.
I'm working on a game, and I need to have the game randomly choose one of four movie clips to add to the stage after a given event. (ex: Mouse click)
The four movie clips are BoostUp, BoostDown, BoostLeft, and BoostRight.

I have an animation where I want to play a movie clip and then play another movie clip from the library (selecting randomly from a group of movie clips). I couldn't figure out how to get this to work, so I tried to play the first clip, and when it gets to its last frame jump to a random clip which is already on the time line. The AS is attached.
Clearly I'm missing something critical here.

how to accomplish my current task. I have an .fla with 32 frames in it, an open frame, a close frame, and a bank of 30 frames in between. I want to set up some AS so that once the user clicks a "Next" button on the first frame, it randomly jumps to another one of the frames within the bank of 30. Then, when they get to that frame and view the contents, and click next, they'll randomly jump to another one of the remaining frames. This will only happen for 20 frames, after the 20th viewed frame, I want the "Next" button to take them to the final slide in the series. The purpose being so that each time a user views the program, it's never the same (well not likely ever the same) - so they'll all see 20 different frames in a different order.
I'm guessing I could do this with arrays, and the math.random method, some if/else statements.

I trying to randomly jump to a frame in a sequnce of pictures on the timeline. Neither of the parts work below - the first "if/then" statements or the commented out switch code. Very frustrated with Flash CS5. Do I really need to learn AS3 to use CS5? I'm having other issues with code I've used in CS3 Flash not working in CS5. If I'm setting the publish settings to AS 2 and Flash Player 8 it should work, right? [code]...

I have a movie with various movie clips on certain frames. What I want is the playhead to randomly jump to different frames I specify within the movie after each Movie clip has played. So at the end of each movie clip there would be a random script forcing the playhead to play another movie clip randomly. My movie has 100 frames but I only want the random sequence to occur on the following frames 10, 13, 25, 86, 75, 56. Or If I labelled the frames how would I label them?? Would they all have to have the same label, or each label different?

I'm using Google Maps with Flex 3. I'm using custom markers (custom icons) to mark places on the map. It works fine. The problem is that in some cases, I don't need a custom icon, I need the standard marker.
For example, how would I set condition C's icon to the standard marker:
public function iconSetter():void {
if (condition A blah blah){myIcon=star; myPointsBuilder(); return;}
if (condition B blah blah){myIcon=circle; myPointsBuilder(); return;}
[Code].....
I don't know how to revert to the default marker where I wrote "STANDARD MARKER".

I am working on a project where i need to support multiple players and platforms to play videos. Major Platforms will be: Windows PC,Mac PC,Apple Devices and Android. This is the precedence i will be following. First it will check browser support for Silverlight 3 or later then Flash then HTML5. If not any one of them is supported user will be asked to installed Silverlight. I wanted to know which pattern and strategy i should use in order to support this functionality. Currently i have investigated about some javascript api that can do this detection on client side easily and load the player appropriately.. but as many of browser could be without javascript support so this method will fails to play videos. Is there any way I can do this detection on server side and inject proper Player HTML on client end?

I'm trying to build a basic website, and I want it to where when I click a button for another page, it plays the out animation for the current page, then the in animation for the page selected. Basically, for example:
Frames 1-10 are the out animation for a page, frames 20-30 are the in animation for page 2. When I click the button for page 2, I want it to play 1-10, then jump to and play 20-30.

I have two embedded flv's in the timeline, one after the other. There are no errors in the video files. When the "playhead" in the exported swf comes to the end of the two combined videoclips, it jumps back to the first frame of the 2nd video clip for a fraction of a second, before playing from the start of the timeline as it is supposed to. I have explicitly done a "gotoandplay(1) in a separate action layer, at the last frame of the "movie", but that's not what happens.

I posted this in the Flash 8 forum, but wonder if I'll have better luck in here. I need to get movie clips to play randomly. Currently, I have actionscript on Frame 1, and a movie clips on the stage in Frame 2. Also in each movie clip as the last frame I have "PlayMC();".[code]

I am brand new to scripting in Flash, and was hoping I could get some help on a question. I have an animation that is 300 frames long. The first 100 frames are an animated 'ad' (for lack of a better term), the second 100 frames are a different ad, and the third 100 frames are the last ad. This can be viewed straight from beginning to end (and is intended to loop if no action is taken), but I would also like to add some functionality to the animation, so that people can jump forward to the next ad, or back to the previous ad (hitting back from the first ad would take them to the third ad, and vice versa.)
[Code]...
This does not turn up any errors when I test the movie, but the functionality does not work. Am I anywhere near a working script, or am I attempting this in a completely wrong way?

I have this script that plays a sound from the library randomly - it works and plays one of the three/four sounds each time it is clicked - but how can i make it play a different sound on each and never repeat - does that make sense?
so, on the first click it plays either 1, 2 or 3, chooses 2 so next click it will choose either 1 or 3, chooses 3, and next click it plays 1 and so on.

I am trying to have a random movie clip play as soon as my site loads, and when that one is done, I would like it to randomly choose another.I have 6 movie clips, I figure I will have to have the random script on frame 1 of my time line, and then I can just modify it to select another one on the last frame of each movie clip. However, I don't even know how to begin scripting this to happen. I have looked through these forums, and it seems like there are a lot of posts about this, but very few answers. Does anyone know how to go about doing this?I am using AS2.

Is there some basic AS3 code to have, when the swf loads, a single video play from a collection of videos in an array? And can said code also apply to sound without video?I just found out the tutorial I was using to randomize doesn't work with audio - as it just plays everything at once - you might 'see' one video - but you hear all them. So from what I am reading, I need to us an array (that seems simple enough), but I don't want to play all the clips - I want it to randomly select and play one. Not sure exactly how I set up the video playback area (so the video plays where I want, at the size I want).Also, I have other pages that are just audio - does audio need some sort of player or something for this?
