the code below loads only the second member of the "koan" array. why it isn't randomly loading swfs? (Could it be a problem with the "var index"?...when it is changed manually in the code from 0 to another number the swf played does change; but still not randomly.)

I think it would be simplest to explain it like this:

I'm working on a card game that will allow users to flip the cards and drag them. I have those two functions worked out, but now I am trying to randomize the order of the deck when I load the swf using an array. I know a lot has been said about this issue on here, and I adapted some code that I found. I'm not getting error messages, but it doesn't seem to be shuffling my deck either. Am I missing something? I just have three cards at the moment (figured I'd keep it simple until I get everything worked out!). Below is the code for MemoryGame.as, my document class. The shuffle function is near the bottom.
package{ import flash.display.MovieClip; import Card; import Boarder; import BlueBoard; public class MemoryGame extends MovieClip { private var _card:Card; private var _boarder:Boarder; private var _blueBoard:BlueBoard; private var _redBoard:RedBoard

i used the Fader class to build a fade in-out slideshow and wanted to make it shuffle. While the slideshow works fine by its own, i just can�t figure the way to make it switch the images randomly. Here�s the code:
ActionScript Code:
import com.utils.Fader.*;
import com.utils.Fader.FaderItems;
import com.utils.Fader.Events.*;
[code]...
Im not sure the list of added elements (all mc) on _faderItems works as an array.
I have 8 buttons in an array.I need to do a shuffle on the array where the buttons are randomly placed in the same array.

I am trying to write a function that is passed an array and will then reorder it randomly and return the array. My problem is that as the position is generated randomly I dont know how long the loop must run for, this function doesn't work but it should give you an idea of what I'm trying to do:

function randomise(the_ar:Array):Array {
var ret_ar:Array = new Array();

I understand how Math.random works, and I understand how Arrays work, but I don't understand how to either rearrange the indices of an existing Array, or how to populate it from another Array in a random sequence without an index possibly repeating.

I am looking for a tutorial or code that will allow me to shuffle 60 cards non-Playing cards and then display the top 5.
I am trying to create a TCG type game once im past the shuffling and know how to display cards i believe i can take it from there.
I got this script where if you have1 2 3 4 5 and i click on the 5 it will arrange the movie clips so they will be5 1 2 3 4That works correctlyHowever what i'm trying to do now is that if you have1 2 3 4 5and i click on the 1 it will be2 3 4 5 1This has been a pain
View 12 RepliesI've been designing this interface for my site. It contains a mini-tv thing in the corner that plays external flash movies selected at random from a list and loaded into an empty MC ("external_screen") with "loadMovie". the code is as follows
onClipEvent (load) {
movieList = ["technical_fault", "skag"];
_root.external_screen.loadMovie(movieList[Math.floor(Math.random()*movieList.length)]+".swf");
}
where "technical_fault" and "skag" are external swf files How do I make it so that when a movie finishes, the previous code is run again and a new movie is selected?
I'm pretty sure this is a common requirement but a bit of googling hasn't provided me with a satisfactory answer so far.Basically, I need to shuffle a 2d array of Points (co-ordinates) so that they are still the same co-ordinates, but stored in a different order.
View 1 RepliesI'm would like to use the UILoader to randomly load an image from an array according to the day of the week. The attached FLA file is in AS2, it is exactly what I would like to do but now in AS3. I've been able to successfully trace the date using:
var today_date:Date = new Date();var dayOfWeek = today_date.getDay();trace(today_date.getDay());
In AS2 I used this the loadMovie function to randomly display SWF's in the movieClip. From what I can tell loadMovie is not an option in AS3 making me think that using the UILoader may be a good solution.This is what my code looks like in AS2 (also attached the FLA file):
loadShow = function() {
var today_date:Date = new Date();var dayOfWeek = today_date.getDay();trace(today_date.getDay());[code]....
Is there some basic AS3 code to have, when the swf loads, a single video play from a collection of videos in an array? And can said code also apply to sound without video?I just found out the tutorial I was using to randomize doesn't work with audio - as it just plays everything at once - you might 'see' one video - but you hear all them. So from what I am reading, I need to us an array (that seems simple enough), but I don't want to play all the clips - I want it to randomly select and play one. Not sure exactly how I set up the video playback area (so the video plays where I want, at the size I want).Also, I have other pages that are just audio - does audio need some sort of player or something for this?

Let's say I wanted to randomly remove an item from an array in a for loop.
Basically, it would go something like;
thearray = ["lol", "dude", "ROFL", "lame", "excellent"]
for (i=0; i<4; i++) {
randomness = random(thearray.length())
thearray.remove [randomness]
}
Obviously that last line was made up, that's where the code goes for the item-removal.
Can images be stored in some sort of array and then called to the stage randomly?

I found this code online. it is for a image gallery that fades in and out as it transition from one image to the next.. the images are load through an array command... it loads the first image, etc.... what I wanted to know is where should i put a Math.floor(Math.random()*this.pic_arr.length); in the string of code... to make the gallery start randomly in the array and then continue onto the next image... also, for some reason, there is not a common directory for all the images, like this script:

Onmy stage I have a MC, and when I click it a random MC from the Library should appear and move around randomly.
I'm using this to make it move around randomly [URL]
how to make the random MCs appear from the library. And should I put the random moving script on each of my ten MC?
Is there a way using flash you can display images but each one selected randomly from say an array of different images?

URL...that has videos in the work section (click work, then the tv icon or the radio icon at the bottom of the page) that will randomly not load.THe weird thing is that the files have never moved, and yet, the same computer on the same ISP using the same browser that could view the videos 2 days prior, suddenly cannot.I'm also having an issue where the flash won't even load on startup randomly.This had happened one time in the past, and I took the page from a test area of the site and put it live, and it solved the problem. So my last ditch plan z is to make a mirror to link to in case the videos aren't loading for a user.
