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.

View 14 RepliesI'm trying to devise a (good) way to choose a random number from a range of possible numbers where each number in the range is given a weight. To put it simply: given the range of numbers (0,1,2) choose a number where 0 has an 80% probability of being selected, 1 has a 10% chance and 2 has a 10% chance.
It's been about 8 years since my college stats class, so you can imagine the proper formula for this escapes me at the moment.
Here's the 'cheap and dirty' method that I came up with. This solution uses ColdFusion. Yours may use whatever language you'd like. I'm a programmer, I think I can handle porting it. Ultimately my solution needs to be in Groovy - I wrote this one in ColdFusion because it's easy to quickly write/test in CF.

I am trying to generate a random number of particles (say between 1 and 4) per second, which would float up the screen from the bottom at a random X value (width is 1280 px). These particles should be a random size (say between 2 and 5 px in diameter) and a random opacity (say between 20 and 50%).
and all of this should be going on in the background while the rest of the flash actions are taking place.
How would I do this, I have been experimenting but have had very little success. It is something that I could easily do in after effects however I would like to keep file size small and allow for continuous uninterupted play.
How to create a code to generate non repeating random number?
View 3 RepliesMy company is holding an event for our clients and I was asked to make an online flash page to help us in keeping track of the tickets.
The file would have a mandatory text field for them to enter their name (name_txt) and another to enter their email address (email_txt).
Next, they would click a generate number button (generate_btn) to generate a random number to a dynamic text field (number_txt). The number set would be 1-500.
I need actionscript to generate a number that will not be duplicated. When they click the generate button, it will submit to a form via mysql / php. The button, generate_btn, will then be replaced by a print button for them to print their number. (The number will also be emailed to them in the event they don't print it).
Now that I'm thinking about it, we would probably need to have them create a user name / login, so that they can't just return to the page and generate another number.
Create a 12x9 grid;Populate the cells with random numbers ranging from 1-9;Assign a symbol (custom graphic) to each cell depending upon which random number is generated in it;Limit the amount of times each number in the random range is used to 12.My question is simply this: how do I, using AS3, create a random number function that will only use each number in its range a maximum of 12 times (it is important to note that my grid consists of 108 cells using the numbers 1-9 exactly 12 times each)? So for example, if the random number function populates 12 cells with the number "4," it will then exclude that number from its remaining iterations.I am adhering to OOP standards so including script in actual timeline frames is not desirable.

View 3 RepliesI am trying to generate a random number of mc's, generate a random type of tween (_x, _y or _alpha), generate a random tween property (Bounce.easeIn, Elastic.easeInOut, etc.), generate random start and end numbers, and then finally generate a random duration for each motion tween. I have noticed that everything is generating randomly perfectly fine, but when it comes to actually creating the tween for each mc it does not work.

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'm making a shooter where you are a plane and drop bombs on below boats(your flying over the sea) and I have 2 types of boats, a red and blue one. I want the game to make a random boat(either red or blue) to come along every now and then. I have created a var Boat, and made it generate a random number between 0+1, so either 0 or 1. Then in the function on load put "if (Boat > 0)" import the red boat and 1 for blue.
The problem is is that the red boat always comes, and not the blue boat, and if I make it 0 for the blue boat only the blue boat comes. I think its because when the game starts it generates the number that number is the same through out the game. how to make it generate a random number each time a boat comes? Or anything else that might work.
really great job done in the forum This is my first thread here, and i would like to ask how can someone produce a random number within a complex range.In my case i want to produce a random number in the range [0,90]OR[270,359] and i can't find the way to do this using Math.random . I looked on the internet but in most cases a simple range is used like (2,40) or [4,50] etc.

I'm trying to avoid useing a button to send the number from A to B, and instead am trying to use an event listener that sends the number when A loads background.jpg; but the number never gets sent (I start with B open already, and then open A). I've gotten this to work with an onRelease event for a button , so i know the LocalConnection coding works, but as I said I want to avoid using a button to send the number. I'm sure it's right in front of me but i've got no clue why it isn't working, so I defer to wiser minds.

Is it possible to define a property to limit the number of elements which will appear in a mx:List ? I've read about setting the property rowCount, but I don't see any effect.Can a filter be applied to accomplish this? My intention was to avoid removing the items from the list/array collection, but simply "hide" them. Can this be done?

I have 5 Cairngorm Events that I am dispatching at the same time(one right after the other) - all of which call a separate HTTP Service. This works fine when I run the application locally however when I deploy my project to a Glassfish server, it only works intermittently, with the app hanging when it doesn't work.
My temporary work around to this is to chain some of the events together so less call are going out at once, but I don't really like this as a viable solution because it slows down performance.
Is there a maximum number of HTTPService requests that Flex can make at once before it hangs?
