Basically I need the "image" of fast changing numbers. I am planning on having a series of these in a line, sort of like the matrix (how the numbers change repeatedly). I want them to basically generate the numbers 0-9 over and over pretty fast (sort of like milliseconds on a stopwatch), until I have them fade out.
View 3 Replieshow would you go about creating a random equation? i would like to randomly generate two individual numbers, a random operator (out of +, -, *, /) between these numbers and then the user would input a number to answer the equation... any thoughts on this?

I want to generate a variable number of random numbers less than 16 with no duplicate numbers
Ive posted the fla, and what i'm doing is generating a random number and putting it into an array then using a for loop to cycle through the array for each new random number to check if its already there. if it is, then i want to regenerate that number.
if you test the fla you'll see that all i get in my array is some lovely zero's and i sort of know why this is, but don't know how to stop it.

I need to generate random numbers between 1 and 20 with a heavy emphasis on the one between 1 and 5, a light emphasis on 5-10, and a low emphasis on 10-20. I don't understand all the fancy probability words and all the stuff they say in the articles I've come across.
View 3 RepliesSo I a few badges (MovieClips)!
The main idea is to generate a collection of badges with random numbers associated to them.
This is what I did up to now:
I created two different MovieClip badges, and exported them for ActionScript as Badge and BadgeHover
Within the BadgeHover the label has been transformed into a class with instance name "score".
How do I access this label and change the displayed score?
Do I need to remove and add a new label every time?
What is the best way to add "hover effects"?
What I have is kind of inefficient, I am destroying and recreating the BadgeHover whenever the mouse hovers the Badge class.
I might not even be approaching this the right way, but I'm trying to make a game where a ship flies through randomly generated tunnels. I'm very new at this, but I felt my question was a bit too advanced for the "Programming Beginners" section.So, what I came up with was two black vertical rectangles, ~50 px wide, ~300 px high and ~100 px apart vertically, as one movie clip. I want this clip to be duplicated infinitely, stacked to the right of eachother, and shifted by a random number between 0-10 pixels up or down.This is the code I used to create just one copy of the walls, hoping it would shift over to x=140:
Code:
for (var i=0; i<200; i++) {
duplicateMovieClip("walls", "walls_copy", 1 );

View 2 RepliesI am making a game in Flash CS4 (actionscript 3) and I would like to be able to make "copies" of an instance that would randomly appear at the top of the screen and fall. For example, multiple objects(that are the same one) are falling from the top of the screen continuously, starting at random X positions. (i think this would be considered Real-Time effect).

View 2 RepliesI'm traying to generate some random numbers: All numbers must be even and they cant be the same twice.Here is my code:

Is it possible to generate random number like:
gotoAndPlay(Math.ceil(Math.random() *4));
But instead of a range have them like .. 40 OR 55 OR 78. Not 0-10 (range)
I've got movie clips on certain frames on my main time line, what I would like is to randomly play these.

I Have started to learn AS3 from scratch and have decided to create a simple maths game for small children. The game consists of multiplication and division. I have everything working accept for this one last thing that I'm just not sure how to tell Flash what to do. Basically there are 2 text boxes that randomly generate a number between 0 and 12. The 3 box is where the user enters their answer. They press check and the code checks to see if box 1 divided by box 2 equals box 3.
However what I want to do is ensure that only whole numbers are used and that the number can actually be divided. I told I need to use this method but I don't know how to implement this in Flash AS3. "For division, the trick is to generate the question, but make sure that the product of the two random numbers is actually displayed in the first box (product / rand1 = rand2) otherwise you get difficult sums..."
Here is my current code:
function divSetup(){
displayRandomDivNumber();
}divSetup();
var divQuest1:String;
var divQuest2:String;

In that how to generate the zoombie characters randomly by group based on the time. First the characters should come slow then as a group and again it should come slow.
View 1 RepliesLooking to generate random numbers b/w 0 and 19 with no duplicates to be put in Array.
View 6 RepliesWhat I'm trying to do now is have 6 characters on stage (these characters are stored in an array) and 2 characters from this 6 will hold a number each and the other 4 will hold an alphabet each. What I want to do is to run this file many times and each time the each alphabets and numbers will be randomly displayed within these 6 characters there will always be 2 numbers and 4 alphabets but I shouldn't know which character will be holding an alphabet and which will be holding a number. I have only two functions now one function is to generate two random numbers to indicate which index of characters to pick to hold a number and then another for loop that run 6 times to addChild on stage.

I m doing a project and had an idea of doing a math game thing where numbers are randomly generated in two slots. For example one is between 1 and 100 and the other the same, and then adding them together. The player would have to add them together then type them into the the answer box and it would tell if it was correct or not. I need help with the coding as I am new to CS5.I have worked with an older, outdated version of flash a little over a year ago. So I somewhat know general things and some of the things that need to be done. Actionscript though is pretty new and I was trying to use math.Random because thats what it seems like everyone is using in their tutorials. Yet, I couldn't get it to work when playing around with it.
View 8 RepliesI am working on a project, and I'm planning to make a flash lava lamp.I am currently working on the "giving heat to the blobs" part of the project.Currently it looks something like this:Link
[code]...
In the next part of the project I will generate some randomly shaped blobs of liquid and place them in a movie.And then they will find out the amount of yellow inside to get the average "temperature" of the blob, and then the upwards acceleration of the blobs will be determined. So if the blob is relatively hot, it will flow upwards, if it's low, it will flow downwards. As it gets higher, the blob will lose some heat. Touching another blob will exchange some heat and other lava-lamp'ish stuff will happen.Do you think I should do it with pixels? (like above) or do you think I should use "normal flash stuff" ? (By that I mean using movieclips, etc)Is my method of displaying "heat" good? Or could I use another way?

I need to have a series of four numbers appear randomly with fade in and out and stay on screen for a couple of seconds each. These are then linked through to separate movie instances that display relevant information regarding that number and then go back to the random numbers. There are options to randomly display text from an external file, but not library objects within the same movie. I have a cobbled together version using scenes and timeline animation, but it's repetitive. It needs to be more random and effective as a visual element.
View 2 RepliesEverything seems to be a string right now & that kinda ruins the whole xml as an internal data structure thing, I don't need a big tree of string I need typed data :-/ Are there any changes I can make to either my XML files or my AS3 code that will force it to cast ints as ints and Numbers as Numbers? Or maybe some kind of type schema I can impose? Not really worked with XML til recently so chances are I'm just ignorant of the canonical way to deal with this...

var res:Number = new Number(str);

create a function that picks out X amount of numbers from a set of numbers? So if X=3, then i need this function to pick out 3 different numbers from say a set of numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) and then stored it into X number of variables.
In saying that, X will only =2, and =5. So in the first instance, i'll need 2 random numbers from the set above that are not the same numbers, and second instance 5 random numbers from the set above (also no repeats of numbers). Then i need to be able to store those 2 or 5 different random numbers from the set into variables to call them with other functions.
