ActionScript 2.0 :: Random Word From An Array?
Aug 25, 2006
I have problem with getting a random word from an array and the putting that word to a text field.
I setup the array for my words like this:
Code:
// a string of words
this.somewords = "wind breeze storm stormy tornado text space";
// convert the string of words into an array of words
this.wordList = new Array();
this.wordList = this.somewords.split(" ");
And I want to put randomly these words to a movieclip that I'm attaching to the stage about 50 times.

I have been building a simple word game. It is smple but works fine. I am now trying to enhance some of the features.I would like to see if I can display one letter of each word so the Player has a hint. Think of this as a beginners level.The words are random from a text list. Either I can make the letters invisible and the game starts without a hint or I am able to select a letter using charAt() or creating a new variable substring()from the word which is the displayed repeatedly on the stage(not what I want) I have not been able to find a way to display one letter and display it in the correct order within the word and keep the remaining letters invisible.

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've been putting data into an array via XML, and then selecting at random an image string to load in a pic at random. But whilst doing this, I wanted to remove the String from the Array that I have just used, so I don't get repetition of the same image in the output. I initially thought that pop would remove the string I had just used - But of course it Removes the last value in the Array instead, which doesn't really help.
Ok - so how about randomizing the data once inside the Array, after it has been pulled in from XML!? That way I can load in the 'last' image, and then pop it out! Keeping a randomized selection of images each time 'it' is loaded

I'm building a word search game using the following AS3 code. My problem is I need to have spaces in my array of words, so that I can have things like states names, but I need the spaces removed before the words go into the puzzle.
The other concern is also that when a person selects a word from the puzzle will it still match the word in the list even though the word in the list still has a space.[code]...

I am doing drag-the-word quiz. When you match the word with correct part, the message pop out, saying Bingo! If the word is matched with wrong part, the "Sorry. Try Again" message pops out, says "Sorry. Try Again". I managed to make the "Sorry. Try Again" message disappear. However it dun work anymore after that. Sometimes it is quite funny. When I play it, the "Sorry. Try Again" message dun pop out at all.
Another problem - I am not sure how to make the word fit into the white box. I only know how to make the word drop on the white box. Can you tell me how to do it? I will be adding voiceovers to the quiz when the word is matched with the part. For e.g it will say "bingo" or "Sorry. Try Again". How to attach the voiceovers to it?

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;

I have 12 empty Movie clips on stage. I want to get the content (jpg's or swf's) for these containers from an array. This is all fine, but I would like the contents to be loaded randomly into one of the 12 containers. The containers load the jpg's, which are preview thumbnails that need to link to the actual larger image plus some text. Loading eveything is OK, but I haven't figured out how to load the content into a random MC...
I attached the fla and images.

I'm creating a series of banners for a website. There are 3 so far with more to be made. I have made each banner as a separate swf file.The thing I would like it to do it create a randomly ordered array of the banner swf names and then load the banners in that order. Once the banners have been played or loaded through, I would l simply like it repeat that same order again.I have managed to create an array and play through that array in an ordered loop, but how do I create a random array that will do the same thing?[code]

I'm trying to create a program that creates a random map for a side scrolling cave. So I need to store the roof and the grounds y coordinate into a big array, like 10 000 pieces of wall.
The only way I've gotten it to accept some data into the array is like this but I want something cleaner and something that can go on forever.
How should I format the first 4 lines of code so that the array accepts commands like this and expands for the for loop as needed?

I have an Array Randomly loading images on to the stage, there is a 'splice'so no 2 images repeat. the problem is - once the images all get 'deleted' there are no more images the array can pull. I want the images to be recreated in the array.That way It will load the 29 images I have Randomly, with out repeating them and after all 29 appear it will start over again.If I remove the 'splice' I can load as many images as I want however some load twice or more before the batch is complete.
Code:
var images:Array = new Array();
for (var i:Number = 0; i < 29; i++) {
images.push("image" + i + ".jpg");[code].....

I want something where I click a button, and it replaces words with other synonyms automatically. My thoughts are:
set up array
(array1=array2)
array1="word1","word2","word3"
array2="word1","word2","word3"
search text for word in array1
if find in text= word in array1
replace with random word in array2
Would anyone know how to set this up, or point me in the right direction?

I am building a quiz game. I generate a random number. I then compare the number to an array of questions already asked. If a question has been asked, I need to generate another random number and check again if this questions has been asked, until I find a question that has not been asked. I am getting lost in all these loops.
var completedQuestions:Array=new Array();
function getQuestion() {
var qnumber=randomNumber(0,numberOfQuestions-1);
//I did not include the randomNumber function as this is not the problem
