I have just start to learning AS3.I have create a function that creates a random number shuffle.I have another array that holds linkages from the library and I'm using addchild to attach clip from the number generated.when a new number is generated how can i attach that amount of movieclips from the library to stage?[code]

View 4 RepliesI'm currently doing a board game, in which you get asked questions and answer them for points. the questions get loaded from a .txt file. what I'm trying to do is that the questions appear in a random order everytime the game starts. I already have the shuffle function working, it shuffles 51 numbers (the number of questions in the game) between 51 variables, so each variable is assigned a different number and they don't repeat. My problem is that I can't figure out how to apply those numbers to the variable that get loaded from the text file. I could make many IF statements but that would be a lot of code, so I tried doing a function, but it didn't work. this is the function:

How would I make it if I wanted a function (that happens to run on event MouseEvent. MOUSE_DOWN)to run while mouse is down, not just once. For example, I have this code:
ActionScript Code:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, keepCreating);
My keepCreating function creates a random shape on the stage. But since it runs once during mouse_down, only one shape is created until you activate mouse_down again (by lifting the mouse button and pressing down again).
What I want it to do is keep creating shapes over and over again, instead of creating one shape per mouse_down.
I have to create a function that creates an array of arrays. I have to be able to add elements to the array, delete elements and extract elements? the elements will be arrays. How to I do that, or it is possible?
View 8 RepliesMaking a random number between lets say 0 and 99 is relatively straight forward using the Math.random class What is the best way to create 100 unique random numbers from between 0 and 99 where no random number is repeated?Would I make a random number, chuck it into an array then the next random number created is checked against the array, and if the number has been created before try for another number?

View 2 RepliesI'm totally new to ActionScript 3 and just trying some very simple things to try to understand how it works in Flash CS5. I have no-one mentoring me so these forums are my first port of call. I wanted to create a simple random number generator. Very simple. Click on a button (first_50) that displays a random number in a text box (main_balls.text) set to Classic/Dynamic. The script I have is as follows:
first_50.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, firstFiftyGenerator);
function firstFiftyGenerator(limit:Number):Number
{
var randomNumber:Number = Math.floor(Math.random()*(limit+1));
return randomNumber;
main_balls.text = String(firstFiftyGenerator(50));
I get no errors in the compiler and my button works in runtime. I just don't get a number in my text box when I click on it.
i was just wondering how to create random numbers without ever repeating the same number twice or more

View 3 RepliesI am trying to create a code such that everytime a button is pressed a random number is generated between 0-14. With each of the 15 numbers (0-14) only being hit 10 times. I know how to create buttons and all that, its the random number thing thats stopping me.I created it using arrays in another programing language and tried to translate it to flash but I was unsuccessful. this is generally what i got

var events:Array = new Array();
var order:Array = new Array();
var used:Array = new Array();

coding a shuffle function into the following code, it doesn't even have to have a visible on/off button since i want it to be always on.

_parent._parent.balloonClose._visible = false;

The idea behind this is to store custom sprites in an array and then feed the array to the drawMap function, which would use the sprites from the array to draw a map.

Background: I am trying to create a website that is easily updateable by a non-html savy user. I figure I can load the content of my flash page from a notepad file within the same directory.I would prefer to not make the editor use a FTP program, so I figure the best method is a webpage where the person can log in and type the updated text and have it create a new notepad file and overwrite the old one. I am not sure if this is technically flash or simply a html question, but does anyone know how to go about doing this
