Hello all,
heres the situation, I am trying to make about 20 movie clips fade in and out randomly.This is the code I have and I thought it would work. I have been researching arrays, randomizing, loops and mroe for so long that my brain is no longer functional. If a scripting guru could help me I would be extremely appreciative. Thanks a bunch!!
This is on the main time line and I have a movieclip name grid on the stage. grid has all the mcs in it.
gridblocks = new Array();
for (var i in grid) {
grid*._alpha=0;
grid*.fade=0;
gridblocks.push(grid*);
}
fadeinCount=0;
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
count=random(gridblocks.length);
gridblocks[count].fade=1;
for (var i in gridblocks) {
if (gridblocks*.fade==1) {
gridblocks*._alpha ++;
// check if all blocks are done
if (gridblocks*._alpha==100) {
fadeinCount++;
}
}
else if (gridblocks*.fade==100) {
gridblocks*._alpha–;
}
}
}
Ok, I have kept looking and I found some more code…it is great except I want my objects to do this randomly and wihtout button prompting…Can anyone help I am desperate…
object1._alpha = 0;
