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 canït 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:

goFrame = random(11)+2;

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.

I don't know much about flash.. I've created a MC with tomatoes falling.. when the MC repeats itself, which I want it to, looks too "rough". I am hoping to make the transition a little smoother..

View 4 Replies1. starts with 2 guns crossed centered
2. the shoot at the same time and start dragging towards the edges of the screen like this: <------ (center) ------>
3. fill the centerish area with smoke from the gunfire while the guns are moving away
4. as the smoke clears my name appears in the middle
5. then a few more frames of smoke coming out of the guns (i want this part to repeat, only this part though so theres just infinite smoke coming out)
now i'm still a bit fresh to flash. here's what i have down. i got my gun pics and the tilt up when fired and got them to drag away (motion tween). i also got my name to fade in from a frame in the middle to the end. i still don't know how to make the bang, or smoke (then make the smoke vanish), and then have the last few frames repeat.
I got some code to make a video loop indefinitely with the nsvid4_loop function, but i want it t be toggleable via a button I am trying to set up a function to do that (vid4loopwitch).. i'm getting stuck though on how exactly to incorporate the one nsvid4loop with its event listener into the function for repeating it is probably pretty straightforward i'm just still learning my way around AS. check the code to see what i have so far.. i just need to know what i need to add to the vid4loopswitch function to get it going. it is really hurtin my brain

I designed image viewer and the main functionality of the code is written in an external class - AS file. The connection between the fla file and the external class work ok. In the fla file I added some movie clips as buttons and when I press them, the external pictures are loading successfully.
A) When the picture is loaded, I am using a tween , and the picture is moving inside the screen.For this I call inputfade() function from the external as.
B) When I choose another picture to be loaded, I want the current picture to move outside from the screen, and the new loaded picture to move inside (same as explained in A).For the current picture to move outside I used outputfade() function, and for new loaded picture to move inside I am using the same first function inputfade()
Here is the main code:
//moving inside
public function inputfade(){
var easeType = mx.transitions.easing.Bounce.easeOut;
[code]....
I have a problem with the part, when the picture is moving outside from the screen (when outputfade() is finished,) I can not add new coming tween. (- I can not call any new tween function).It seems that any code related to tween (exept yoyo)or other type of mc motion is blocked after after finishing the function outputfade(). I also add with some trace (�test�); after finishing the inputfade function and the trace work. Also interesting this.yoyo() function works as well after finishing outputfade, which is not same case with calling inputfade();

I'm trying to create a simple news scroller. The scrollers is no problem, but I'm not good with XML. I am able to display a simple text in an .swf file with some AS code and an XML file. The problem is that I want to be able to display an number of sentences with the same tags. I want to have some AS code that checks if I have more of the same tags and then displays al of the scentences. I don't want to use several dynamic textfields, I just want to use one, cause it's easier and faster to edit the text.
This is the code I use in the .swf:
Code:
function loadXMLTB(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
_root.datum = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
