Creating A Random Card Deck

programming flash
1

Hello…

I’m trying to add a second card deck to this matching game, but can’t wrap my head around how to set up a second random feature to call one of three arrays.

My problem is that I want to call 6 cards each time I start a new game, but for the sake of not boring people with the imagery, I want to have it so that the card types vary each time they start a new game, meaning flash calls one of three decks. What I’ve come up with so far is below… and I included the as file… Any help would be greatly appreciated! New to game programming…

 var colordeck:Array = new Array(1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6);
 var colordeck2:Array = new Array(7,7,8,8,10,10,11,11,12,12,13,13);
 var colordeck2:Array = new Array(14,14,15,15,16,16,17,17,18,18,19,19);

public function color_match() {
for (x=1; x<=4; x++) {
for (y=1; y<=4; y++) {
var random_card = Math.floor(Math.random()*colordeck.length);
var tile:colors = new colors();
tile.col = colordeck[random_card];
colordeck.splice(random_card,1);
tile.gotoAndStop(9);
tile.x = (x-1)*112;
tile.y = (y-1)*112;
tile.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,tile_clicked);
addChild(tile);
}
