Hi guys,


I've a question to ask regarding randomization using actionscript. Given a situation where you have different designed game characters and you would like to display different characters as the player replay/restart the game. How would you go about doing so? Any idea?

Correct answer

var bearOne = new bearMC();
var bearTwo = new bearMC_2();
var bearThree = new bearMC_3();
var characters:Array = new Array(bearOne,bearTwo,bearThree);

var mcChar:MovieClip=characters[int(Math.random()*3)];

addChild(mcChar);

var characters:Array = new Array("char1","char2","char3");


trace(characters[int(Math.random()*3)]);

If

var bearOne = new bearMC();
var bearTwo = new bearMC_2();
var bearThree = new bearMC_3();
var characters:Array = new Array(bearOne,bearTwo,bearThree);
trace(characters[int(Math.random()*3)]);

how do I display the character using addChild() or another other methods?
