How to do math calculations in AS2? I only need + and -. Aswell, how to choose a random number inbetween 2 and 6 and put in a variable form. After this, I need to do a calculation like:
Code:
"currenthealth" - "random"
lets say that when you click on a button the variable number goes up 1 or 2 but it picks it randomly
how would i do it

I have created a form in Flash and I need to send some hidden data. The problem is that some of the hidden data variables are numbers. This worked fine in the HTML form. It does not work in Flash. Can you take a quick look at the following code and let me know if there is a way I can do this? The variables that are numbers are commented out at this point because it throws up errors. I would like to be able to uncomment them but if I do nothing works.

i have a project and i need that when a specific variable equals a specific value a random number decreases on the current number, its easy to make it decrease but i need to decrease instead of 4 to decrease a maximun of 5 and minimun of 3.ere is the code :
Code:
numeroDeTazos = 20;
quantidade.text = numeroDeTazos;
if (nrfinal2 == 33)

Im trying to do a hittest on a random movieclip... basically i have 4 'objects' and i am picking a random number to pick one of them... this is all fine except when i try to do a hittest on 'object' + randomNum...Below is the code that works first with a trace that is kicking out the name i want, and below is the code ive tried but doesnt work...
Code:
var randomNum:Number;
randomNum = Math.round(Math.random()*3)+1;[code].......
So what I have here is a button that will take away a random number from a variable (in this case being money) this is nothing more than a learning experience and I just wish to broaden my horizons on flash AS.
Actionscript Code:
on (release) { money -= random(200); }on (release) {gotoAndPlay (2);}
While this code works just fine the only problem i have with it is that it will select a number from (0-200). Is there a way I can set this up to select a random number BETWEEN 2 numbers? EX: (150-200)
the variable Im interested in is numSound which at the moment is a random number between 1 and 5, but it repeats too much and a sequence would be fine. I know very little actionscript and nothing I have tried works,the code, or what seems the relevant code, is
Code:
private function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number
{

What coding would I write so when a user presses a button, it selects a word from the words within the text?
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to achieve the following:
On my stage are 8 movieclip, respectively called squid1 to squid8. I'm trying to make actionscript designate one of these 'actors' at random once in a while, and make it pop up/do something. Dont know what exactly yet. Here's what I'm working on...
Code:
function chooseActor() {
var pickNumber = (Math.floor((Math.random()*8)));
var result:Object = new Object();
[Code].....
Now chooseActor funtion does what I intend it to do, i.e. generate a variable consisting of the word 'squid' combined with a number. I expected I could simply use this variable as the name of a movieclip and then just unleash all sorts of wackiness on it. But it doesnt work.
I want to change this bit of code
var numSound:Number = randRange(1, 5);
which I presume creates a random number between 1 and 5, to just a simple sequence of 1 to 5, or alternately, random would be ok if there was a way to preventing it from repeating numbers
how to do this and not found much, so here goes:
I want to generate a variable number of random numbers less than 16 with no duplicate numbers
Ive posted the fla, and what i'm doing is generating a random number and putting it into an array then using a for loop to cycle through the array for each new random number to check if its already there. if it is, then i want to regenerate that number.
if you test the fla you'll see that all i get in my array is some lovely zero's and i sort of know why this is, but don't know how to stop it.
So I have a movie with 20 frames...on each frame...there is a question...so I want the user to access that pool of questions...when it pops up...it will randomly choose a Frame to go to...Now...how do I go about...when that Frame is chosen...take it out of the pool of the random questions...so it doesn't land on that frame again...I'm thinking with variables maybe...but I actually don't know how to even begin to write the code for that.

View 21 RepliesI m choosing random numbers. I want to be able to choose any number from 1 to 10. Let's say for example, 4 is chosen. I then want to be able to choose any number from 1 to 10, aprart from 4. Let's say 6 is chosen. I then want to be able to choose any number from 1 to 10, apart from 4 and 6. And etc, until all of the numbers are chosen. I was hoping someone could recommend the best way to code the above.
View 4 RepliesI am having a really frustrating problem with creating 2 random numbers. When I run the program, everything works fine, until I hit my object and go to the screen "math". Once there, all it shows is one number in one of the 2 boxes. Below is the code used to generate the numbers. I used the "trace" command to see if it was actually generating the numbers, and it is. The problem seems to be with pushing that number into the variable and displaying it to the user.

I am trying to create a simple form using Actionscript 3 that will collect data from a form, then pass that data to an asp file.

View 3 Replieswhat do i really want is:
if i have numbers of frames 31,64,97,134,175...(between each of that frames i have motion tween, so it isnt 1,2,3,4...) i want that it goes random in the array of numbers but with no repeating (if i passed 64,175,134 i shure dont want to go on 175 again or something similar), and when that array is finished(all the frames are passed) i want from flash to go on exc. frame 205. Could somebody write that in as3 code? :roll:
