I want a movieclip consisting of a dynamic text box that, from the time it's loaded onto the stage, loads a randomly selected text string from an array, and continues to loop until the clip is removed from the stage. I also want the text strings to appear in the text box for random intervals between 500 and 3000 milliseconds.
While I've found tutorials here and elsewhere on loading one element from an array, usually triggered by a button, I don't know how to combine/alter it with the other elements.So I want this movieclip on the stage randomly flashing phrases from an array, some for a barely perceptible time, and others for a readable time.
I'm working on my site and I have a random background script setup. Heres the code that Im using now.[code]...
Now I love the way thats its working and but one thing that is kinda crappy is that sometimes it suffers from repeating the same background a couple of times before going to another random background. Now I know that its because the script is working properly but can anyone think of a method that I could use to make it not be able to pull up the last background that it has already loaded? I dont want to make it static because not only do I have this setup for when you enter the site but also its random when you click on one of the nav buttons because I want to try to keep my site dynamic.
I have 5 boxes on the stage as movie clips, each one with the same animation waiting to be targeted. What I need is a random script that will make them play in "random" order. This should occur after a few seconds of inactivity where they each play, but once there's mouse movement, whichever ones did animate should "reset" or play back to their original positions, (assuming there's more boxes and there's movement before all of them play). I have some code in there for arrays and some random script that isn't working right now. I just need the random setup, really. I may be able to figure out the time delay, (maybe), and then be able to tweak the rest of it for how I need. Right now, I've just simplified everything in a 5 box example hoping someone might be able to work with what I have.
I have a while loop that I need to shuffle the order of my array. This was initially an AS2 code and am trying to convert this over but have come across with an error I don't understand so hoping someone may know what it means. My while loop code is:
Code: var randomArray = shuffle(orderArray); function shuffle(toShuffle) { // shuffles an array
I have a movie clip that is preforming a repeating earthquake like effect. What I am attempting to do is have the function pause for a random interval between 2 and 10 seconds before repeating. This is the script I am using for the "earthquake" repeating effect.
Learning Action script and programming so I apologize that the solution is simple, I just don't know what it is. What I want to happen is to pass objects through that I want to fall down the screen. I pass the object in through e:Event (which comes from an event listener on the stage) and speed which gets a random number between a high and low value.When I run it, it of course gets a new random number every frame. (because its called by an Event.ENTER_FRAMEHow do I go about this to accomplish my goal?Here is my code:
private function moveIt(e:Event, speed):void { if ( e.currentTarget.y <= 400 )
I've got the following script that loops an array of movieclips at random positions in and out of the stage using Tweener. My problem is that the loop uses all the movieclips (WELCOME00, WELCOME01, etc.) at once. What I'd like is for the loop to only use one of the movieclips, chosen at random, for the loop instead of all of the movieclips listed in the array at one time.
Code: import caurina.transitions.*; var mcArray:Array = [WELCOME00, WELCOME01, WELCOME02, WELCOME03]; var init:Boolean = true;
The loops fades a random image, which works great the first time round, if I go to another page and then back the home page (which is where this code is on frame 1) the first image loads but the random image code does not continue. I think it has something to do with nextHolderBool.
var numbers:Array = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20]; var numRemaining:Number; var randomIndex:Number; var currNumber:Number; var nextHolderBool:Number = 1; [Code] ......
got some code working to duplicate a movieclip, but what I'd really like to do is obviously randomise the movieclip's x position so that it spreads across the stage, rather than stacking in the same position as it is now.
Code: for (i=1; i<11; i++){ duplicateMovieClip("alien", "alien_new_"+i, 22-10, i); }
I have a loop that replays on a random timer.Start of loop frame 1:
function pause(){ play(); clearInterval(timer);}[code]...
on the next scene i just want the frame to stop(); forever but it seems to play after waiting for the above designated timed pause.when i remove the code above, stop(); works fine again. How can i get it to work aside my timed pause? anyway to reset it..ive tryed adding clearInterval(Timer); before the stop on scene 3 and its done nothing
I am trying to create a loop that changes the colours of my dynamic vectors inside my sprite however I am not sure if I putt the following var names in the right place in the end of my statement attached or if i need another variable :[code]
I have 10 mc's on my page which I want to load from alpha = 0 to 100, one at a time, but in a random order each time the page is loaded. I have code which uses an array to loop the mc's and I can then load the array into a tween using as2, but I don't know how to randomly create an array, then load these answers into a tween and play them one after another until the loop is complete.

I'm trying to have my program select from a random assortment of pictures in the file, and each one is labeled Transition1, Transition2 etc. Each instance of the symbol is named transition1, transition2, though 4. The 4 symbols are in one other symbol with the instance name TransitionImages. For some reason when I run the program it doesn't put the files in the symbols though
stop(); var checkNumberArray:Array=new Array ; var transitionimageLoader:Loader;
I am trying to create a movie clip that loops and on each loop it loads a random little .jpg banner from a directory. The banners are named 0.jpg, 1.jpg and so on, a script on the first frame of the loop saying
"bannernumber" is a variable from an external text file specifying how many random numbers to cycle through (how many banners), This works just fine and loads up a new banner after each loop cycle. The problem lies in trying to make each banner go to its own url, I have another external text document with variables "click0=url, click1=url etc" where I want the number in each variable to equal the randomnumber variable in flash, then use an on(release){getURL(urlvariable)} function to have it retrieve the url that is somehow in the url variable. Basically, how would I make the urlvariable be equal to the "click0" variable to get the url of the click0 variable into the getURL function? while having the number in the "click0" variable be equal to the randomnum variable?
I have code that I got off line that will create a random number in the output tab. I put together an if else statement, however I can not figure out what how to call the random number into the if else statement. My last try was calling "n," However that did not work. I have a bit of the code that I am working with. I am giving only the first 3 but there are 13 in total, but as they are all the same just going to different frames I thought that it was not necessary to show them all.
function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number { var randomNum:Number = Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min; return randomNum;
[code]...
If there is an easier way to get the same thing I am open. I just want it to start on a specific random frame (13 of them).
After clicking this button i go to a random frame from frame 1-5 .. something like that.If i ever click this button this goes me to a frame ranging from frame 1 up to frame 5LOl does this make sense.. .XD just answer me i'm going nuts lewl )How do i make a numerical stepper like thisSTR : 1/10AGI : 1/10LUK : 1/10 STATS AVAILABLE : 20I made the limit for each stats but it stills doesn't reduce the stats nor go to the limit of 20 instead they go like thisSTR : 10/10AGI : 10/10LUK : 10/10 STATS AVAILABLE : 20
I have this site[url]... and i want to make a random image background.so it is not always the same image. and at this point i dont need the radio buttons.
I'm trying to make a simple animation with Flash CS4 and Action Script 3.0 to make a number of Symbols fly by from right to left constantly.What I want is that once a symbol has reached the end of the screen it is destroyed and another one is placed at the start position.I intend to give each symbol a random speed and create a random symbol each time one is 'destroyed'.
I am trying to make a random shape, I want each different point to draw a line to every other point, which I know this won't do yet even if it worked the way that I wanted. But, at the moment, my code does nothing. It is supposed to draw a line from from the first value in the point array to the second value in it to the third value in it.
Here's my code:
Code: onLoad = function() { drawIt(10); } function drawIt(numberOfPoints) {
I am making a script so I can have a dynamic menu, this menu loads external buttons at random 8 at a time, and unloads and reloads every 25 seconds.[code]...
I'm trying to develop a SWF Api that consists of a game that makes random objects fall from the top, each of them has different points, and then the points the player gets should be stored into a dinamic text called score, when the player doesn't take the ball, loses a life. Then, if the player catches it, the ball disappears and gives the points to the player.
