Jan 12, 2008

I can't get my head around arrays.Ok so basic I know it can be displayed as blah then you can retrive with trace(blah[X]); or in a text box.I can't be bothered with the var blah:Array = []ect.. I want to stay simple.I want to load a random vaule from an array but I want to keep the code simple so I can come back to it and instantly understand and make changes.

ActionScript 2.0 :: [Flash 8 Pro] Load Random Array Element And Loop For Random Intervals?

Sep 30, 2006

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.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Putting Data Into An Array Via XML And Then Selecting At Random An Image String To Load In A Pic At Random

Feb 11, 2009

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

ActionScript 3.0 :: Array Used To Load And Play Random Swfs?

Jun 23, 2009

I'm trying to use an array adapted from AS2 script to load random swfs called "koan_1.swf" or "koan_2.swf" etc into a "koan_loader_mc" on the stage.  Each "koan_#.swf" has code in its last frame to both advance the "shuffle" array in the action script in the first frame of the stage and to load the next koan swf.  The code below -- almost -- works, but....?
 
Frame on main stage:
 
// creates function called at the end of koan_#.swfs
function shuffle(a:Array) {
for (var ivar = a.length-1; ivar>=0; ivar--) {

ActionScript 1/2 :: Load Random Swfs From Array & Navigation?

Apr 4, 2010

I don't think I'm as familiar with arrays as I need to be to complete the following project - I've read about 60 posts and no one seems to be doing exactly what I am. Here's what I need to do: From a main swf (home.swf), I need to load 7 consecutive swfs in random order, (movie01.swf, movie02.swf, etc) from an array, into level 1. I need all seven to play without repeating, then repeat them in the same order in a loop.

But I ALSO need the user to be able to navigate through the swfs by using next or previous buttons (or by selecting individually 1-7, but that may be asking too much from my limited knowledge).Here is the code I'm using to generate a random ordered array:

var fileNames :Array=new Array("movie01.swf","movie02.swf","movie03.swf");shuffle = function (targetArray) {for (i=0; i<targetArray.length; i++) {var tmp = targetArray[i];var randomNum = random(targetArray.length);targetArray[i] = targetArray[randomNum];targetArray[randomNum] = tmp;}};shuffle(fileNames )trace(fileNames )

I assume from here I can load the swfs from fileNames [0]. I'm way out of my depth so the rest is a mystery to me.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loop A Random MC From An Array?

My problem is that the loop uses all the movieclips (WELCOME00, WELCOME01, etc.) at once.

ActionScript 2.0 :: How To Get Random Content From Array

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...

ActionScript 2.0 :: Random Array Loader?

Aug 7, 2008

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++) {
