How To Randomly Spawn 3 Out Of 10 Questions From Library
Feb 12, 2010
I'm really new at flash and I'm having some trouble with a textbook assignment. Before I explain my problem here is the code:
Code:
stop();
var defValue:Number = 1;
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, vetIkke);
function vetIkke(e:Event
[Code] .....
I was doing some assignments in my as3 textbook when I ran into a bit of trouble. I'm trying to make a flash that picks 3 random questions out of a total of 10 and displays them on screen. I made each of the questions movieclips and assigned them all a class (question1 - 10) through Linkage. So the variable "randomQ" is the name of the class of a random question, but how do I get flash to understand that? And how do I spawn that question as a movieclip on stage?
Code:
var Question:MovieClip = new randomQ();
I've tried various alterations but can't seem to find the right one. It's possible I've yet to learn the necessary knowledge in order to make this flash.

I have an Flash CS4 application which pulls in data (questions) via XML and randomizes them. Right now if there is 50 questions in the XML file, 50 questions are displayed and randomized in the application. I am trying to figure out how to limit the randomizing pool so that only 35 questions display(even when the XML file has 50 questions) or something like that. My current code which brings in the file and randomizes is below. The code is written in AS3, by someone else. this part of the code pulls in the XML data and randomizes.
Code: Select allpackage exam {
import flash.net.* //to create URLRequest and load XML file
import flash.events.* //for Load events

I have been making a shooting game(birds-eye view), and have put 'Bots' into it but i seem to be have trouble making the bots spawn randomly over the entire map. (550w x 400h-the usual)I have tried using the Math.random function but it only picks between 0 and 1; is there a way to make Math.random choose between 0 - 550 (for the width of screen) ???Or would i have to make some function for that purpose?

I have a mc call mcA which visible and invisible alternatively on stage. I want to attach 10 mc (mc1-mc10) in library with this mcA. When mcA is visible it will attach mc4 in library then it is invisible again. The next time it is visible, it attach let say mc7 and so on, we do not know which mc it will attach in the next session it is visible.

I'm working on a rather large project at work using CS5 Flash. The project involves loading several .swf files at different times from a main 'hub' type structure. Think of it as a multi-channel platform and when you click on the channel you want, it loads the sub-swf with the videos and movie clip contents/as code in it.
As one can imagine, this has cause the overall project to grow quite huge. When we open up the main fla file that contains the library content of it's children fla's, some files will randomly go missing. These files are being shared over a network with various people via a file repository system so no two people can be working on the same file at the same time. This doesn't appear to be the problem, nor is accidental deletion as an individual can check out the files, work on them locally, save them locally, close and reopen them locally and random content will be missing again.
We believe that the issue may have to do with the overall size of the fla's (the fla's range in size from 16mb to 3mb). They will be playing as stand alone objects, not on a website so other outside content isn't an issue. Some of the computers being used are 64 bit system while others are 32 but all systems have had the issue. We are also using AIR to help with some of the functionality but this issue started before we started using AIR.

I would like to every time I click the next button, then it will load another MC from library without repeatation of those MC.

Basically, I have movie1, movie2, movie3, movie4 in the library, with linkages.
These are just 5 frame clips, with a single dummy_mc moving statically over the 4 frames.
I need these to be picked randomly and placed (each has its own set of co-ordinates where it should appear) on the stage at a random set interval (ie, every 2-3 seconds).
There are also 7 items (item1, item2, etc) in the library.
So once one of the 4 movies has been placed on the stage, I need one of these 7 items to randomly attach itself to the dummy_mc within that movie (and, I guess, generate instance names etc)

I read a bunch of tutorials and I cant get multiple mc's to spawn. I have this button so that when you click it, it spawns an mc that you can drag around. So I spawn one drag it around, then try to spawn another but that deletes the old one and makes a new one. Here is my code:

I am really new to actionscript3 but this is what I want to do. I want to use the slider in component to spawn or copy a movieclip to the stage in any random placement. For example if I slide my slider across 1 interval and that interval is assigned like X(times) 10 the movie clip will spawn or copy itself and place it self randomly 10 times on the stage.

I have a mini-game where I have three movieclips:The player (controlled by mouse); A random object that moves around the stage (like the arkanoid ball without the paddle and the blocks); A simple power up.The game is simple: hitting the power up increases your scoreThe game ends when the object hits the player.The question is:How can I spawn the power-up (randomly) on the stage area, every time the player hits it?When that happens I want the following events to occur:1) The power-up to be removed;2) Increase the score by 1.3) Place a new power up randomly on the stage.4) Rinse and repeat.

I'm trying to make a game where enemies are spawned at the left side of the screen and gradually move to the right, but the problem I'm having is that when they spawn rather than moving 20 pixels each frame, it calculates the final destination like it's a for loop. This is the code I have

I learned 3D math from the tutorial on this site. I have since developed a game where you are a spaceship flying through a star field.I can get the new planets to be created based on your position, but I can't get them to change based on your angle. this makes it so they don't spawn in front of you, they spawn off in a parallel line.

Im creating a Game and Watch style game. Now with these games the enemies/obstacles spawn slowly at first then increase their amount over time.
I have created a function to spawn the enemy movie clips until a number of clips have spawned, they then move along their Class keyframes until they are either killed or game over.
how I can increase the spawn count slowly over time? I�d also like to randomize the spawn of certain enemies, how can i do that? Do i make for if conditions?
Here is my spawn and move code.
Code:
// ============ ENEMY SPAWNER
function spawnEnemy():void {
var chance:int=Math.floor(Math.random()*8);
var newEnemy:MovieClip;

can anyone give me any idea on how to make random enemies spawn with this code? The export is evil, for the enemies. I've tried a random function but it just doesn't work. Can anyone take this code and make enemies spawn randomly? Like can anyone actually modify it and the put it in their reply?Also, I don't care whether the enemies come from vertical or horizontal directions. The size of the flash is 550 x 400.[code]

I'm currently developing my own 2D shoot em-up and using a book called "The essential guide to Flash games" as reference to create my own enemy spawn state machine where the game keep spawning enemies (game goes on forever till player dies). I attempted to trigger each enemy spawn occuring to the game's level with an variable called "chance".
With my current attempts, the game either only spawns one enemy and spawns no others or doesn't spawn any enemies at all. I was wondering anyone here has any suggestions/tips for this issue I'm having?

Here is a link to what I mean: [URL]. I am spawing enemies by this right now:
public function newPlane(event:TimerEvent) {
// random side, speed and altitude
if (Math.random() > .5) {
var side:String = "left";
} else {
side = "right";
} var altitude:Number = Math.random() * 300 + 20;
var speed:Number = Math.random() * 50 + 50;
var p:Airplane = new Airplane(side,speed,altitude);
addChild(p);
airplanes.push(p);
setNextPlane();
}

My character is spawned in the middle of the screen, and i'm not sure how to make zombies spawn from the left and right side of the screen, and moving towards the middle. My goal is to make the zombies spawn automatically, and the character in the middle is able to shoot them down. I've just started working on AS3, but i know that i'll need to make an array to do this, but not sure how to implement this.
Here is my code:
package

I'm making a game where targets popout from behind walls. I have 3 walls, each wall needs to have his own target. I'd like to make the game spawn the targets randomly behind each wall. I'll tween them to make them go up.
I assume I have to link the targets to their own class and delete them from the stage and have the script spawn them instead, right?
