I'm trying to create a button that plays random frames, and not repeat the frame. Like, if Frame 3 was shown, it won't be shown again. I'm kinda new to Action Scripting.
View 1 RepliesI want to make a MC-container with a Random Button, each click on the button shuffles the frames inside the MC-container. However, the difficult part is to make it shuffle the frames without shuffling the same frame again - until all frames been shuffled, then the procedure kan start again.
View 5 RepliesI have 5 different buttons for the navigation on my flash website.The first page is on frame one.When you click on any of the 5 buttons I want it to play frames 10 - 15 before moving to which ever frame the button 1-5 corresponds to. So:
Click on button 1 > plays frames 10 - 15 > Goes to frame 20
Click on button 2 > plays frames 10 - 15 > Goes to frame 30
Click on button 3 > plays frames 10 - 15 > Goes to frame 40 etc
How do I make this work?
I recently came across this script which I believe I have used before. However, I can seem to recall how to use it right as I can't get it to work. It is suppose to play the frames at random and not repeat any. Once that takes place I want it continue that cycle over and over. [code]...
View 4 RepliesThis time I'm trying to access random frames between 1 and 10.
function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number {

return randomNum;

I want to create a preloader that plays a certain amount of frames as it loads the rest of the frames. So, I have labels on the frames basically and need a preloader to play the "loading" frames as it is loading the "content" frames. Does that make sense? I have no idea how to even start this one... p.s. I am using AS 2.0, but if it can be done in 3.0 easier, I can switch over its no biggie

I am currently working on a flash game and I only have one major problem left! I have a series of questions that are each their own movie clip in flash. I have 13 different questions and thus 13 different movie clips, one for each. The issue I am having is thisDuring the course of a game sometimes a question will repeat itself, and I dont want that. I have tried to make the question selection random and without repeat but have only succeeded with the random part at this point.This is my code for for frame 1:
function randFrame(cFrame){
goFrame = random(11)+2;
if (goFrame == cFrame){

Ok- so the idea is that when you click a button it plays the movies assigned to the variables gallery & button to the frames mentioned. Then the variables are changed and then when another buttons is clicked it does the same - 'except it doesn't - it does it once then sits there I have to use variables because there's a lot more buttons..but i don't understand why it doesn't work - it seems such a simple and obvious thing to try and do - why is it so HARD???
I hit enter,it only plays next frame and then goes back to the frame where it stopped. What I've tried was something like:
stop();
Key.addListener(Key.ENTER)
if (Key.isDown.ENTER){
play();
};
I want it to play all the way to the end,not just go back.
I have a flash banner with my stage swf that I have loaded four swf files into and they play through sequentially. Now, I need it to repeat and play through again.
View 1 RepliesI need to tell a button to go to a random frame of 6 frames. Lets say these frames are 20 to 25.
Now I think I understand most of this except one thing. How do I change this script to pick a number from 20 to 25, rather than 1 to 10?
Here's my starting point:
ActionScript Code:
generateNew = function () {
n = Math.round(Math.random()*10);
};

I have a short movie which consists of 6 MCs. What I would like to be able to do is to start the movie on a random clip and then proceed as usual playing each consecutive MC. The movie then loops back round to frame 2 thus avoiding the random selector code which sits on the first frame of the movie.I have tried three different solutions of AS, two of which I got from a 2008 posting on this site from CBadger and although all versions work in Safari and v1 & 3 work in Google Chrome on the Mac. None of them work in Firefox on a Mac (the 1st version displays but doesn't randomise and v2 & v3 don't display at all) and I have not yet tested them on a PC.Here is the code that I have used for each version on the first frame in the root:
Array.prototype.shuffle = function() {
for (var ivar = this.length-1; ivar>=0; ivar--) {
var p = random(ivar+1);

I guess its some kind of random array.. but i dont know how to form it, need it for game(dont want same frames repeat its stupid ) And only specific frame numbers(i have motions between specific frame numbers).
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a flash content slider thing (i.e. it shows a message and then transitions to the next, and there are buttons at the bottom to navigate to each message). Now I want it to actually stop playing when you navigate to a specific message, instead of continuing to play from there. The problem is there's a fade transition, so I essentially need it to go to the first frame in the transition and play (what it does now), but then STOP once the transition is complete. I don't know how to do this without adding a global stop() to that specific frame, and I don't want to do that because I want it to, by default, rotate from one message to the other.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to create a button that plays a movie clip and stops when it's moused over. I've attached a file (help.fla) that illustrates my problem.
View 8 RepliesSo i have a website, made in AS2. its very simple- the only AS on the whole site is a few stop commands. and some
" on (release) {
//Movieclip GotoAndPlay Behavior
this.gotoAndPlay("1100");
//End Behavior
}"
commands.. now i have some buttons that all have the above script on them,the only difference being the "1100" number. they all work fine except 1 of them. If you go to the site and click on this problem button it will go to where you tell it , but if you go to this site and click on any other button first and THEN the problem button it will go to a random frame. it usually has about 10 particular frames it goes to but they are never in any order. The real kicker ... is that it will only do this once, after the button has taken you to the correct frame once it will keep taking you to the correct frame, until you refresh the page.
1. starts with 2 guns crossed centered
2. the shoot at the same time and start dragging towards the edges of the screen like this: <------ (center) ------>
3. fill the centerish area with smoke from the gunfire while the guns are moving away
4. as the smoke clears my name appears in the middle
5. then a few more frames of smoke coming out of the guns (i want this part to repeat, only this part though so theres just infinite smoke coming out)
now i'm still a bit fresh to flash. here's what i have down. i got my gun pics and the tilt up when fired and got them to drag away (motion tween). i also got my name to fade in from a frame in the middle to the end. i still don't know how to make the bang, or smoke (then make the smoke vanish), and then have the last few frames repeat.
I want to make a button that makes you got to a random frame within a certain range (eg frame 41-50) when you press it. I have tried various codes but so far no luck. Im using AS 2
and the button is within a couple of movie clips, but you can still click it when you test
Right now I have a flash movie that runs about 100 frames then stops and acts as buttons.
I don't want it to loop from the beginning, I just want it to loop the last 10 frames over continuisly.
I would like to be able to call a function from a movie clip so that the function repeats itself over a few different frames without having to be called again. I could have the function call itself according to an "if" statement but I believe that the movie will not go the next frame until it finishes all the cycles. So for example: The function makes the movieclip move over a few pixels but I want it to move over a bunch of pixels so as to give the illusion that it is moving slowly, I To do that the function needs to repeat until the movieclip moves the entire distance, but if that happens all within the function, at least as far as I have been able to figure out,

how i should go about making a function that returns a random int w/out repeating? i was thinking:
[Code]...
would this be sufficient? i'm tracing my output and sometimes i don't see anything. is this because it could take a while to iterate through w/out a repetition and that may cause the variable to be undefined during that call of the function?

View 8 RepliesIn AS 2.0, I have an array of swfs that I'd like to play randomly end to end. With the following code I can make the swfs random without a repeat of the same swf back to back. What I'd like to do is have all the swfs play randomly until all have been shown. and then repeat again randomly or load a separate final swf.

I'm using some nifty code which randomly loads a movie clip with jpegs via an XML file and an image folder. Everything is working great, except, the random function doesn't seem to make it through the entire batch of photos before it repeats images. I did notice their is a method which loads an array but I wasn't sure how to incorporate that.
ActionScript Code:
//: SETUP INITIAL VARIABLES
var oldVar = 0; // keep track of previous random number
var newVar = 0; // used to load the next image
var si = 0; // interval variable
//: GET XML

Is there any way of preventing repeat numbers in random number generation?ve tried using the pop function and the delete function on elements in an array which are randomly selected, but cant get the effect I want. Ive even tried making two variable values equivalent to each other to try and constrict repetition
