Help me please

[.:.:Lui:.:.]

ok i need help with this one...URGENT
so could someone please reply this ASAP,

is there a code where when u get to this frame, it randomly chooses which code to use?

like
(code on frame)
gotoAndPlay(1);
//the random code here
gotoAndPlay(2);

, it would be like it wil lrandomly choose which one to do, the gotoAndPlay(1); or the gotoAndPlay(3);

if there is not, can someone tell me when u get on this frame it randomly chooses a frame that i specified?

please explain with proper instructions.
Thanks

,Lui

Look here for random frames:

how do i work it?
(the 1 in the URL)

[Blackspirit]

number=Math.ceil(Math.random()*2);
if(number==1){
gotoAndPlay(#);
}
if(number==2){
gotoAndPlay(#);
}


first it does random number, its either going to be a 1 or a 2.....
if its a 1, then gotoandplay(#)......where the # is any frame number you want.
So if you wanted it to go randomly between frame 1 and 3 you'd have.



number=Math.ceil(Math.random()*2);
if(number==1){
gotoAndPlay(1);
}
if(number==2){
gotoAndPlay(3);
}

keeps going on the second one,

here's the code:


onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
onMouseDown = function() {
number=Math.ceil(Math.random()*1);
if(number==1){
this.gotoAndPlay(42);
}
if(number==2){
this.gotoAndPlay(48);
}
}}

Ok, you put Math.random()*1, your only ever going to get 1!

if you want a random number between 1 and 5 say
Math.ceil(Math.random()*5)

or between 1 and 2 say
Math.ceil(Math.random()*2)

Well Blackspirit put it as simple as its getting. Its like he said, all you have to do is change a few numbers. :cons:


number=Math.ceil(Math.random()*2);
if(number==1){
gotoAndPlay(42);
}
if(number==2){
gotoAndPlay(48);
}
