ActionScript 2.0 :: Generating A Random Number Between 1-20 And Keeping A Total
Mar 29, 2006
I'm trying to make a kids score board where there are 20 icons all with scores behind them between 1 and 20 and a kid chooses an icon, clicks on it to reveal their score, thenthe score is added to their teams running total at the bottom of the window. (There are 2 teams) The thing i have a problem with is generating the random numbers and also where exactly to drop in the actionscript in the timeline. I've tried different variations of the Math.Floor(Math.Random) but i cant seem to get it to produce the numbers i want!

I need to make a random number series something like " LK208T38". I can make single random number but dont know how to produce a series. May be we can store the characters in array and display them.

I heard of some Math.random() but I'm not sure about using it correctly. Number must be whole, so I suppose I'll need some rounding function.

I looked everywhere on the internet and couldnt find how to generate a random number that had one decimal place.I am trying to generate numbers between 12.0 and 13.0 randomly.Below is my code... I know its wrong because of Math.round and Math.random, but i cant seem to find anything that deals with a decimal place.
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_EnterFrameHandler_1);
function fl_EnterFrameHandler_1(event:Event):void{volt.text = Math.round(Math.random()*(1)+12).toString();}

So basically I am making a round robin function, for someone, basically a round robin, matches every player with every player, im having alot of trouble with this, its quite difficult heres an example of the site i've been copying off (his matches are preset though)
[URL]
My current code generates about 10 "undefineds" each launch I do My code gets the input entered (which is the amount of players) It generates how many players based on that input my graph I have is 10 columns long, and 19 rows down I need to match player
1, vs 2 - 20,
2 vs 3 - 20,
3 vs 4 - 20,
4 vs 5 - 20

Here is a very difficult math problem I was unable to solve, its an excellent opportunity for someone like newblack or lordofduct or some local genius to demonstrate their superior math skills to the community: I want to change a base Number over many updates/iterations, by a random % of this Number in a random direction within a pre-defined threshold WHILE, keeping the averages across the iterations the same as the original base Number. here is it in pseudo-code:
[CODE]....
Some restrictions: Ideally this would be a pure 100% straight math solution without any kind of Weighting, tricks or additional variables. (IE a weighting would be if the number deviated from an additional baseline or hit some kind of limit, then we started artificially increasing it back to that baseline. )

generating a lot of random numbers and running them through movie clips to generate random letters. I've set the frame rate to 21 (which translates to 19 on a Mac... close as you can get it seems) but Mac users see everything in slo-mo. Alas, folks with slower PCs also see stuff in slo-mo so I'm thinking it's the math stuff screwing things up rather than the mac stuff.
Does anyone know of a way to simplify random number generating for slower CPUs to keep up? The problem might also be that there are a ton of math-calculated alpha transitions that I could kill if necessary. I'm also wondering if "setInterval" times are treated differently per computer -- some machines seem to treat an interval of 1000 as though it's 10,000. Is this a function of the cpu speed? I keep running into speed problems like this with AS and it kinda sucks. A modern day version of the old browser/DHTML display issues. They work fine on my machine, but not everyone has a new PC.

I have an object which I want to rotate between -45 and 45 degrees, but I want that to be based on the mouse position. If the mouse position is at zero, I want the object to be at -45 degrees. If the mouse position is at the stageWidth, I want the object to be at 45 degrees. How would I accomplish this?

I 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.

Currently I have to create a website where some videos should be played automatically.
When a User opens the URL and lands on the page, a random video of a total of 5 should be played. When the video is finished, it should chose another video of the total of 5 videos.
So an example: It should chose one video of 5 videos. Play it, then it should chose 1 video of 4 videos, then it should chose 1 video of 3 videos..and so on. And after all 5 are played, it should repeat the process.[code]...

How can I find out the total number of MovieClips on stage at any one time?
I've just had to optimise a tile based scrolling game by ripping clips off and on the stage as it scrolls. I could have used gotoAndStop scrolling but I was hoping I could try clip ripping first (reorganising my entire library wouldn't keep me on schedule) - so far the overhead has been drastically reduced.
But I want to be double sure there aren't any MCs lurking (implementing this is producing rarely occuring bugs), how can I get the number of clips attached?

What I'm looking for is to have a button on the screen. When clicked it will generate a random fact. I'd like to have around 25 facts, although the number doesnt matter at this stage.
I'm only learnigng flash and actionscript at the moment so my thoughts are a bit confused. Would I store all the facts in an array and use the math function to generate a random number that will access the fact stored in the array? not sure how the code would look like.

I have an engine for platformer game and I need to generate random blocks while moving and of course delete old ones, when the hero leave pervious position.Here is the code for generating random platforms when the game starts (costructor):
ActionScript Code:
public function TheGame()
{
bla-bla...
[code]....
As you can see, I create a loop which creates 10 platforms in different positions.My goal is to create a function which will delete blocks from the array which are not in the stage anymore and create new blocks when screen is moving up.

hi, i'm generating two random numbers, between 1 and 4, which must be different to each other each the two numbers are picked. i've tried the following:
var firstRandom = Math.random()*3+1;
var secondRandom = Math.random()*3+1;
var boxA = "box"+(Math.round(firstRandom));
[code]....
and i still get two numbers the same occasionally. why isn't it comparing the numbers?

Code:

Im trying to get the Total number of images for each project. But it only returns the first image for each project....Do I need to nest a loop within the project loop to get the images for that project?

I'm trying to do something that makes sense in my head, but can only translate to code with mixed success.On the screen is 6x4 grid of boxes, 24 in total. These boxes represent a number of entries in a big visual timeline, the total of which can be anywhere from 1 to many thousand. Of course, only a fixed number of 24 can be seen at any one time.The grid scrolls left/right to show previous/future timeline entries in their box form.
The grid normally starts at the very first entry, but there is an offset built-in to it so that you can, for instance, start the display of these entries at a certain point. For instance, if you have 26 entries with an offset of 1, that means there will be 1 entry not seen to the left (before), 24 on the screen seen, and 1 entry not seen to the right (future). Or if you have an offset of 10, there would be 10 to the left (not seen) and 16 filling the space on screen, etc.The scrolling basically slides the entries left or right by a factor of 4 (since the columns consist of 4 boxes), but must be clamped to not scroll beyond the total number.
Is there some simple math anyone can think of to track the state of these boxes? I ask because I will have Flash create *only* the 24 max that can be seen at any one time. Any time you scroll to the right or left, Flash will create up to 4 new boxes to fit that next column, and then animated all 28 boxes (24 existing + 4 new) to move the new ones on (and the old ones off), and then delete the old ones. This is to keep things optimized since creating many thousands of boxes that each load external content is not very feasible.
Hope this makes sense to someone. It would be similar to what you see here, but with scrolling (and more importantly, something to keep track of it all): [Url]

generating random numbers between 50 and 200 but the number that has been generated once should not be displayed again. I am using this code
var num:Number;
on(release){
num = Math.round (Math.random ()*200);
trace(num+50); // +50 because random numbers between 50 and 200 are required
}
Its working fine but sometimes repeat the number that has already been displayed.

I am making a game where random letters and words are generated into movieclips, thats the background. I built it using arial as my font, however I then decided to go with a fixed width font to make sizing the movieclips to the words much more straightforward. Yesterday this worked fine, the font i am using (Liberation Mono) is installed on my computer, all the textboxes which use this font have the character embedding on them, and I have not changed any of the movieclips, only non-relevant code. So I run it up again today and none of the words appear. Thinking it might be some code changes I made I go thourhg tracing out everything, only to find the wrds are being generated, and written to the textbox absolutely fine. I switch back to Arial just as a check and bang it works again.

I'd like to create a very simple random addition equation.I have: 3 dynamic text boxes (r1_txt, r2_txt, a1_txt)I want the first two to be random numbers and "a1_txt" to display the sum of the first two random numbers.Everything's perfect up to the point of adding the two numbers together and dropping the answer into a1_text. What do I need to do to my last line of code?
//random numbers//1.function randomNumbers(min:Number,max:Number) { var Results:Number=Math.floor(Math.random()*max)+min; return Results;}
//2.new_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showRandomnumber);
//3.function showRandomnumber(event:MouseEvent):void{ r1_txt.text = randomNumbers(1,100) r2_txt.text = randomNumbers(1,100) a1_txt.text = Number(r1_txt.text) + Number(r2_txt.text);}

I'm assigned to do the portfolio section for my company's website and my supervisor has specifically told me what he wanted in terms of navigation and layout. Basically, he wants each portfolio piece to be square and in the form of 7 x 7 square grids. Each square's dimension is 100x100 px. He wants each portfolio piece to load randomly every time the page loads, so that it makes a shape of jigsaw puzzle-like if the piece is less than 49. Each image needs to be imported externally so that when we have more portfolio, we can simply added it to the array. Each portfolio piece should behave like a button that links to a bigger image.I was able to get it to the point where the squares are generated dynamically on 7x7 square grids ( I used script from "Flash Hacks" book by Sham Bingal) Now I'm trying to develop the script to get it to work like my supervisor wanted.

i have a dynamic image gallery, and what I want to do is be able to load a number that is saved in a text file and use it as the total number of images in that folder for an if statement:
this is what I have so far:
Code:
var imageNumber:Number = 1;
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(new URLRequest("images/info.txt"));
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
[Code]....
how can I use the value of a variable within a function outside of that function without having to create a class and package and all that?
I need to be able to have the function return a value of a variable within itself and be able to target that value outside the function..
