I'm not sure how to go about this since I'm fairly new to ActionScript, but I have this script which displays random image and quote. It works fine as is, but how do I make it not repeat any of the items untill it has gone through all of them?Here is the script I'm using now:
choice = Math.round(Math.random()*19);
switch (choice) {
case 0 :

I've 3 movieclip on stage which is mc1,mc2,mc3 at first they are alpha=0 What I want is when i click on revealBtn, 1 of them will show up as alpha=1. But with my code below, sometimes I need to click about 5 times or more only can make all those mc show up.

how i should go about making a function that returns a random int w/out repeating? i was thinking:

would this be sufficient? i'm tracing my output and sometimes i don't see anything. is this because it could take a while to iterate through w/out a repetition and that may cause the variable to be undefined during that call of the function?
I have this code:my_txt.text=a = myArray[Math.floor(Math.random()*myArray.length)];Is there a way to do so that one element in myArray doesnt show more than once. I have tried different methods some days but canīt succeed.
View 8 RepliesIn AS 2.0, I have an array of swfs that I'd like to play randomly end to end. With the following code I can make the swfs random without a repeat of the same swf back to back. What I'd like to do is have all the swfs play randomly until all have been shown. and then repeat again randomly or load a separate final swf.
From what I've read I need to add a splice function to remove values from my array but I can't seem to make it work. Can anyone tell me what I need to add to this to make it work? Here is my code:

I recently came across this script which I believe I have used before. However, I can seem to recall how to use it right as I can't get it to work. It is suppose to play the frames at random and not repeat any. Once that takes place I want it continue that cycle over and over. [code]...

I'm using some nifty code which randomly loads a movie clip with jpegs via an XML file and an image folder. Everything is working great, except, the random function doesn't seem to make it through the entire batch of photos before it repeats images. I did notice their is a method which loads an array but I wasn't sure how to incorporate that.
ActionScript Code:
//: SETUP INITIAL VARIABLES
var oldVar = 0; // keep track of previous random number
var newVar = 0; // used to load the next image
var si = 0; // interval variable
//: GET XML

Is there any way of preventing repeat numbers in random number generation?ve tried using the pop function and the delete function on elements in an array which are randomly selected, but cant get the effect I want. Ive even tried making two variable values equivalent to each other to try and constrict repetition

I would like a flash header on my Wordpress blog that will load images at random by way of XML list from a folder on my server. I'm undecided as to whether I would like it to just randomize on refresh, or actually be a slideshow of sorts that would go through several images on one page load.Alternately, instead of a list of files in the XML file, I would prefer the flash movie to be able to pull the images without having to specify them by name, so that I could ultimately continue to add images to the folder without affecting the script.Also, if it does work as a slideshow, I would like to ensure that no one image would repeat itself back to back, or possibly before it went through all the rest of the images

View 5 RepliesI am currently working on a flash game and I only have one major problem left! I have a series of questions that are each their own movie clip in flash. I have 13 different questions and thus 13 different movie clips, one for each. The issue I am having is thisDuring the course of a game sometimes a question will repeat itself, and I dont want that. I have tried to make the question selection random and without repeat but have only succeeded with the random part at this point.This is my code for for frame 1:
function randFrame(cFrame){
goFrame = random(11)+2;
if (goFrame == cFrame){

I want to make a MC-container with a Random Button, each click on the button shuffles the frames inside the MC-container. However, the difficult part is to make it shuffle the frames without shuffling the same frame again - until all frames been shuffled, then the procedure kan start again.

The tween works only once. I need it so when the tween is finished, it does the same tween (with a different random number (different position)), however after the first two tweens (x and y) have finished the movieclips just sit there.
I have two text boxes as outputs: "textDisplay1" & "textDisplay2".When I click the button "test" these outputs display a number between 0 and 1. That is what I want and I am happy with that.[code]The problem I am having is, I do not want the same number in both boxes. If textDisplay1 displays the number 0, I want textDisplay2 to display the number 1. I do not want both boxes to have either a 0 at the same time or a 1 at the same time.[code]But that just makes it randomly guess a number again which sometimes is the same number.Can I make it if textDisplay1 = 1, make 1 unpickable by textDisplay2? Which would only leave the 0.

View 1 RepliesI was wondering if there was a way to modify the current tutorial regarding "loading random movie clips from external swfs", into MC containers on the stage? I would like it to do the following
[Code]....
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
im playing with the load random movie (but loading a random xml file instead) based on the wonderful tutorial from front page and was wondering whether anyone can show me the work around/upgrade to AS2 for this bit of script since im publishing to Flash 8 /AS2 and it doesnt work:

How I can make this script lo load mp3 files via an external xml file like music.xml and if is possible to load random

Is there any way to load an external image and add it to more than one movie clip?
View 3 RepliesIt has been a while since I worked with flash and I am picking up AS 3.0 now. I have this project that should load jpegs from a server. I found that properties like x,y position etc are accesible through the loader object and that you can add a click event to it. Let's say I want to display a list of jpegs in thumbnail format, when the user clicks on it, it should show a full size version. I am not sure what the best approach is to achieve this as I assume that when using the same loader object to download all images the click event will reference the last downloaded image, correct? Should I create a seperate class for all of this and load all images by instantiating this class for each image or is there an easier approach?
