I want my event listener function to throw out unique random numbers between 1 and 30. How does one do that in as3? Math.round will repeat values.?
View 2 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?

I have made a short script to generate some random numbers that must be unique. But it doesn't work as I thought it would have done! What is wrong in my code? Preciate some help to change my code so that generate unique random numbers.

I have a custom slideshow that I've made that has a set of four images changing every 5 seconds. The images are randomly selected by a random number between 0 and the length of my XML.
how can I get four unique random numbers - i.e., getting 1, 4, 6, and 8 rather than 1, 4, 6, and 6?
So once a random number is selected, it can't be selected again.

View 3 RepliesThe following program gives me the results in the output panel because I used trace. The problem is that I want these numbers displayed when I click on a button. The numbers should not duplicate when the button is clicked, for example not "3, 3, 2" but "3, 2, 5". Here is the program that randomly selects numbers (which by the way is not mine): (I'll happily donate 15$ to the animal charity of your choice for whoever can give me a hand with this problem
var mynumbers:Array = ["1","2","3","4","5","6"];
var mystuff:Array = [];

I am using actionscript 3 and I am creating an array of 16 buttons and need to use the function math.random to get it to pick 5 random unique numbers out of the array. As at the moment it is sometimes picking 5 unique numbers and sometimes it has duplicate buttons appearing?

View 8 RepliesThis seems quite easy, but I'm not that good with Flash, so it'd be really gr8 if anyone can help.I'm trying to create an array of random unique numbers from 0 to 39 so that I can list these numbers in a countdown and without repetition, ie: 25, 29, 11, 03, 17 etc.These are 40 different numbers, equal or greater than 0 and equal or less than 39.

View 3 RepliesI'm moving on to my next massive programming project and I'm trying to decide whether I should code it in as 2.0 or 3.0. I came across the new click event model in 3.0. Right now it's looking like a pain in the butt to me. So now I have to make a function and add it as an event listener? what the hell? What's the benefit? I understand stuff like this makes AS a more complete language but it's kinda annoying.
View 1 Repliesi have been trying to write a multi player bingo game, i have got passed all problems, except 1, the random function, the random function works fine with 1 player but when i play the game with more than one user each user will get different numbers and not the same numbers. how would i do it so all users get the same number is there a way where i can shuffle 90 numbers then load them into a movie clip then all users play the movie clip then all users get the same number is this possible or is there a simple way. I have also tried getting random numbers from php mysql but get the same problem,

ActionScript Code:
var num:Number = Math.ceil(Math.random()*90);
I have 40 frames that I want the player/user to go through. The 40 frames shoud be shown in a random order and no frame shown more than once.
How do I go about making the random function discard frame numbers already picked?
how do i use two event listeners on one function. For example, i want a mouse_move and enter_frame event listener with one function

View 5 RepliesI am working on a game for my university project and I have run into a bit of trouble. I have the following code here:
function launchBall() {
this.stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN ,launchBallHandler);
function launchBallHandler(e:KeyboardEvent):void {
if (e.keyCode==32) {
[Code].....
Its set up so that when a ball goes off screen, it resets to a coordinate and launchBall is called.
LaunchBall then adds the event listener to see when the Space key is pressed and that starts the ball moving again. The problem I have now is I cant seem to get rid of that eventListener. I have tried removeEventListener and that doesn't seem to work. I have tried:
if (ball.xVel>0 && ball.yVel>0) {
removeEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,launchB allHandler);
just below that code and that doesn't work either. It's not spitting any errors out at me but I am completely stumped.
I just started a course that does a little flash. To teach us they have us build a brick breaker game. I have come to a part were I have to remove all the Listener that were created for the game. Each level is a movie clip and when the level is over the level instance is removed from the child. From what I understand when the level is removed the Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE becomes true and the function attached should be called however it is not. Here is the code of the function that sets the listener and the function to be called:
[Code]...
private function myFunction(numIn:Number){
trace ("numIn " + numIn);
}[code].....
This won't work, but can you see what I'm trying to do? It's kind of like a function pointer, or when you pass a function name into an event listener.
I have a method which registers an event listener to each of the MovieClips in an array I have. The method is inside a class, and so is the listener function. The problem is, I'm getting an error that's says "Access of undefined property handleNavToggle", even though is declared.
[Code]...
So I guess the usual stuff is to have
function listenToEvent(evt: Event){
//stuff
}
[code]......

View 2 RepliesHow do i pass a variable to a function from an event listener which is inside a function Below is a function that is called when after loading some variables
function dataOK(mydataevent:Event):void{
var j:int = 0;
do {
trace(j);

This is a simplified version of the original code. The above function generates an error because j is undefined in the function. I am wanting to get the variable j when the button is pressed.
How do I pass the variable j to the Button_Click function?

View 7 RepliesI have a set of buttons on, and what i would like to do is change the value of a variable, depending which button you are over.i know i could do this by writing an event listener and a function for each button, but this is too time consuming.I'm sure in the old days it would have been as simple as if btnwhatever.mousedown = true then.... but now i have no idea.
