I would like 10 text boxes. Each should hold a random value from 0-9 i.e. no value should appear twice at any one time.So, I set up 3 variables with random numbers. The biggest problem now that I can see is, I will have to write code for all the variations there could be:i.e. check if var1 == var2, var3, var4 var5(then it needs to increment or decrement-or do something).check if var2 == var1 var3, var4 var5(then it needs to increment or decrement-or do something) etc.Is there a quick way of doing this in actionscript?This is the code I have so far (which is very basic for my 3 variable tests).[code]
i want to make a swf ecard. the swf will include an input text for a message + input text for sender email adress + recipient email adress.the swf will send variable to php with random name + email to recipience with message that inform bout an ecard sent to them + specific url.
Im trying to do a hittest on a random movieclip... basically i have 4 'objects' and i am picking a random number to pick one of them... this is all fine except when i try to do a hittest on 'object' + randomNum...Below is the code that works first with a trace that is kicking out the name i want, and below is the code ive tried but doesnt work...
Code: var randomNum:Number; randomNum = Math.round(Math.random()*3)+1;[code].......
So what I have here is a button that will take away a random number from a variable (in this case being money) this is nothing more than a learning experience and I just wish to broaden my horizons on flash AS.
Actionscript Code: on (release) { money -= random(200); }on (release) {gotoAndPlay (2);} While this code works just fine the only problem i have with it is that it will select a number from (0-200). Is there a way I can set this up to select a random number BETWEEN 2 numbers? EX: (150-200)
I get a debug error: Error opening URL "file:///C|/pathtofolder/flashdata.txt?reload=263757" Where the reload variable is the random number and flashdata.txt is the file that contains the variable I need.
the variable Im interested in is numSound which at the moment is a random number between 1 and 5, but it repeats too much and a sequence would be fine. I know very little actionscript and nothing I have tried works,the code, or what seems the relevant code, is
Code: private function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number {
which I presume creates a random number between 1 and 5, to just a simple sequence of 1 to 5, or alternately, random would be ok if there was a way to preventing it from repeating numbers
Hey i am making a quiz which is going to have 20 questions and i have about 40 question in the questions array. make a variable which will hold the 20 random question so
for eg
var arrQuestion:Array = [ 40 questions in here separated by commas] var randQuestions:int = arrQuestion.length-1;
but that just sets randQuestions to the arrQuestion's length now how do i set the variable randQuestion with 20 questions that are randomly picked from arrQuestion.
How to do math calculations in AS2? I only need + and -. Aswell, how to choose a random number inbetween 2 and 6 and put in a variable form. After this, I need to do a calculation like: Code: "currenthealth" - "random"
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 am having a really frustrating problem with creating 2 random numbers. When I run the program, everything works fine, until I hit my object and go to the screen "math". Once there, all it shows is one number in one of the 2 boxes. Below is the code used to generate the numbers. I used the "trace" command to see if it was actually generating the numbers, and it is. The problem seems to be with pushing that number into the variable and displaying it to the user.

i have a project and i need that when a specific variable equals a specific value a random number decreases on the current number, its easy to make it decrease but i need to decrease instead of 4 to decrease a maximun of 5 and minimun of 3.ere is the code :
I want a movieclip consisting of a dynamic text box that, from the time it's loaded onto the stage, loads a randomly selected text string from an array, and continues to loop until the clip is removed from the stage. I also want the text strings to appear in the text box for random intervals between 500 and 3000 milliseconds.
While I've found tutorials here and elsewhere on loading one element from an array, usually triggered by a button, I don't know how to combine/alter it with the other elements.So I want this movieclip on the stage randomly flashing phrases from an array, some for a barely perceptible time, and others for a readable time.
What I want is for my mc to slide to a new random x position when it is less than 5 pixels away from its target, it keeps doing this. the problem is for some bloody &*�$(()** reason my random numbers only keep going up!! why is this?? i want to produce random numbers between 1 and 770 - this is my code..
I've been putting data into an array via XML, and then selecting at random an image string to load in a pic at random. But whilst doing this, I wanted to remove the String from the Array that I have just used, so I don't get repetition of the same image in the output. I initially thought that pop would remove the string I had just used - But of course it Removes the last value in the Array instead, which doesn't really help.
Ok - so how about randomizing the data once inside the Array, after it has been pulled in from XML!? That way I can load in the 'last' image, and then pop it out! Keeping a randomized selection of images each time 'it' is loaded
A background music looping in the back, that starts with the opening of the swf and never stops. I think I achieved that with this bit of code :import flash.media.Sound;
Finally I need to jump from frame to frame randomly to play various animations. For example :Project starts, background music starts playing, we hear random sounds played one after the other, while some animations can be seen on screen, playing in a random order.
I have a picture on the stage covered by 12 squares (sq1, sq2, sq3.......sq12) When the movie opens I want the squares to move down, but i want a random sequence ( 3, 9, 2, 12...........8). I already made de function for the movement:
im playing with the load random movie (but loading a random xml file instead) based on the wonderful tutorial from front page and was wondering whether anyone can show me the work around/upgrade to AS2 for this bit of script since im publishing to Flash 8 /AS2 and it doesnt work:
Making 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 am now using the code for my background image which will rotate when you enter a new gallery.I can't get it to randomize.[code]I have tried adding: Math.floor(Math.random() * total); and it almost works. It seems everytime the last node is called it stops working (also at other random times, haven't found a pattern).
