Actionscript question..

[Xipp]

How do I make a random value be limited?

What?

Let me explain further..
I want my random script to pick either the number 1 or 2.
This is what I´m writing:

random(2);

Then it picks either 0, 1 or 2.
I do only want it to pick 1 or 2.

So.. You want us to explain how to make the random script choose between the numbers 1 or 2, instead of 0, 1 or 2?

Exactly! You´re pretty smart, my friend!

Try this:

myNum = Math.round(1+Math.random());

random(1);
picks number from 0 to 1
random(1)+1;
picks number 1 to 2

OR
random(2) + 1;

That makes 1, 2, or 3.

Quit talking to yourself!

[Xipp]

I think you should try it! You´ll like it!

[ninjitsuwarrior]

Maybe the test to prove it:
onEnterFrame=function(){trace(Math.ceil(
Math.random()*2))};
And only the number:
Math.ceil(Math.random()*2);

Thanks ninjitsuwarrior!
No problem!
Really?
Yeah...
Omg, i like you!
Aww, thank you! That's nice!
Haha
Haha
Not funny...

Ok, I´ve tried all of your ideas but none of them worked.

So, what do you want us to?

I want you guys to tell me what I does wrong, by showing you the hole script for that part of my game. Then I hope you will help me solve my problem.

Sounds cool, but why did you tell us that "we helped solving your problem" int the first place?

Yeah, I was so sure that your ideas would solve my problem that I wrote it before I even tried it..

Lol, that wasn´t too smart!

I know..

Anyway, show us your script and we´ll try to help you.!

Here´s the script:
onClipEvent (load) {
// Normal weight
if (_root.fat>50 && _root.fat<150) {
if (_root.kt>0 or _root.kt == 0) {
_root.ktr = random(2)+1;
if (_root.ktr == 1) {
this.gotoAndPlay(1);
}
if (_root.ktr == 2) {
this.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
}
if (_root.kt>100 or _root.kt == 100) {
_root.ktr == random(3)+1;
if (_root.ktr == 3) {
this.gotoAndPlay(3);
}
if (_root.ktr == 4) {
this.gotoAndPlay(4);
}
}
if (_root.kt>300 or _root.kt == 300) {
_root.ktr == random(4)+1;
if (_root.ktr == 5) {
this.gotoAndPlay(5);
}
if (_root.ktr == 6) {
this.gotoAndPlay(6);
}
}
if (_root.kt>600 or _root.kt == 600) {
_root.ktr == random(5)+1;
if (_root.ktr == 7) {
this.gotoAndPlay(7);
}
if (_root.ktr == 8) {
this.gotoAndPlay(8);
}
}
if (_root.kt>2000 or _root.kt == 2000) {
_root.ktr == random(6)+1;
if (_root.ktr == 9) {
this.gotoAndPlay(9);
}
if (_root.ktr == 10) {
this.gotoAndPlay(10);
}
}
}
}

NOTE: I want the movieclip to go to a specific frame when ktr is for example. 3.. Don´t notice the other stuff. The only important thing is the ktr´s.

I hope you can help me..

You can try this if you want:

onClipEvent(load){
if (_root.fat>50 && _root.fat<150) {
if (_root.kt>=2000) {
_root.ktr = Math.round(9+Math.random());
}else if(_root.kt>=600){
_root.ktr = Math.round(7+Math.random());
}else if(_root.kt>=300){
_root.ktr = Math.round(5+Math.random());
}else if(_root.kt>=100){
_root.ktr = Math.round(3+Math.random());
}else if(_root.kt>=0){
_root.ktr = Math.round(1+Math.random());
}
this.gotoAndStop(_root.ktr);
}
}
