ActionScript 2.0 :: Random Motion Tutorial With Multiple Movies?
Sep 26, 2006
The random motion tutorial works just perfectly with one movieclip, but when I try to make a new movie clip and assign the same code to it, it really doesn't duplicate at all. The original movieclip has an instance name of dot so I created a new movieclip with instance name of dottwo.But for some reasob the following code doesn't duplicate the dottwo at all
i = 0;
while (i<25) {
dot.duplicateMovieClip("dot"+i, i);
[code].....

Tip#1: Some flash movies (mostly those with motion tweens) run slow in Firefox on some computers. To avoid this issue, do not use plug-ins perhaps provided by third-parties or drag and drop HTML programs. Just add the HTML page and flash file in your website's directory.

I tried to remake the random movement tutorial [URL] but at the end the objects stayed all at the same place. So I downloaded the fla at the bottom of the page and when I previewed the animation it also did not work. I use Flash MX on a Windows XP pc.

I'm helping w/ the website at our church and came across the "Flash Random Quotes" tutorial here on kirupa.com at:url..How can I do something like this, but I want the quotes to randomly display about every 10 seconds, as long as the page is open.I don't want to only have one, single random quote on page load.I'm tasked to have a random display of ongoing "testimonies" on our church website. Right now, I'm using jquery, but it's quirky (as you can see below), but the worst thing is, it isn't random - it loads the testimonies in order that they are listed in the sidebar.php file. So, everybody that visits reads the same few testimonies at the beginning, and doesn't see the other ones.I'd rather try and use Flash to pull random testimonies from the quotes file ... but I don't want it to only show one ... I want it to show a random testimony, then about 10 seconds later, show another random one, etc.

I have a movieclip with a grid of 9 squares (3x3) what i would like to do is have each square move either on the x or y axis into a position of another square (like one of those puzzles where you move the tiles around to form a picture...) a random square in a random direction at random intervals.I have tried editing the random movement tutorial on Kirupa, but i cannot get the effect i need.url...

I followed the Random Quote Tutorial, pretty self explanatory really as all the tutorials are. is simple to have a whole bunch of words, load them randomly into a text box and then animate that text box randomly on the stage. So for example I'd have 'BLAH' loaded into a random area on the stage (or a specific set of coords if needs be) and then 'BLAH' would scale up from zero to fade out into _alpha=0 and a massive scale.
The problem I'm having is that whilst I can follow the random quote tutorial that relies on pressing a button to trigger the quote being loaded, thats my first problem. How to load the random word into this text box to then be displayed on the screen, do something with that text box (the animation) then loop back round once its finished. I'm assuming I get this by....if textbox._alpha = 0 then go back to the beginning type thing?!

I am in the process of creating a VS Card game in Flash. It is basically a game where you can choose either one card or another, each randomly pulled from one of the eight different sets. The first card (or swf) can be pulled from any of the 8 sets (out of a total of 12 cards in each set))..and will load into a targetMC, and the second must be pulled randomly from any of the 8 sets except from the folder where the first card was chosen and load onto the second targetMC.

loading random movies into a loadclip. Currently I load all my movies this way.
loadMovie("preview.swf","loadclip");
I want to have one of several movies load in a random order when the site launches. Obviously when a viewer returns to my site, a different movie would initially load.

I have a script that produces random motion along the y axis, however, I want that motion to occur within the movie clip that is centered on the stage, or I should say within the bounds of that movie clip.
The movie clip has a height of 335 px

I did the random motion tutorial (mx version) on kirupa, and it isn't working the way I expected. I made a new movie clip that consists of a simple white dot, and put did everything else. When I start the movie the white dots jump around rather than moving smoothly.

I have a main movie with 2 empty movie clips on the stage. They have the instance names clip1 and clip2. I also have 10 swf files named movie1.swf, movie2.swf, movie3.swf, etc. I want to randomly load any 2 of these swf files into the 2 empty movie clips in the main movie. After the 2 swf files have been loaded, I want one of them to last 20 seconds, and then randomly load a new swf file to replace it. And the other one, after 30 seconds, will randomly load a new swf file to replace itself. And this cycle will go on & on...
I have the following actionscript:
[Code]....
Unfortunately, it isn't working. Is there an error with how I typed this? Or do I need to change something so it will work?
I basically want to load 2 swf files into 2 different targets, have one of them last 20 seconds & then randomly load a new swf, and have the other last 30 seconds & then randomly load a new swf. What is the correct actionscript to achieve this?

I have gotten my movies to play at random from external files but the links that where coded into the random swf files no longer work. could there be an action script issue? The random swf files are as3 and the player file is as2????

I started out learning AS3 on my own a while ago without any programming experience whatsoever. I'm still in my diapers, but slowly progressing. Currently I'm working on a short animation with some code involved. Part of the animation is a herd of cows grazing in a pasture. I have a class called Cow which extends MovieClip and on the Cow timeline I have the walk cycle and other cow movements animated. When a cow is walking it slowly moves horizontally, along the x axis. I want the cows, when walking to also randomly move up and down (along the y axis) which would basically look as though the cow is moving further away or moving closer towards us. I'll be resizing each cow, according to its y position to create the effect of perspective (near and far).
What I'm trying to figure out is how to make the cow move either up or down the y axis in a somewhat random way. By "somewhat random" I mean that I don't want the cow to switch directions every second, but rather something like: 5 seconds moving up the y axis, then maybe 8 seconds moving down, then possibly 4 up, then 11 down, etc. It would be super if I could also have a velocity factor involved, meaning that when changing directions - from up to down, or down to up - I prefer that the change is smooth, like as in a ease out and then ease in.

I've cut and pasted the random motion tutorial code into my movie, and for some reason the movie clips that are moving migrate to the bottom right off the movie, off-stage. I've tried setting the registration point of the movie to the upper left, but that didn't help.

I have been trying to tweak the random motion tuts here. What I want to accomplish is a round motion of a clip lets say a sparkle, but I want to appear that it is floating like driven by the wind. I know this sounds crazy but is it possible?? and if yes does anyone have a snippet or a tut I can check out?

I'm trying to create a flash demo for my prof and we want green dots to move randomly across the screen without ever overlapping each other.I saw the kirupa tutorial on random motion which is really good. I'm wondering if I can add something to the code so that the dots won't overlap, (as soon as one touch another they move away) as they move.
