This may seem trivial but for some reason I am having a difficult time getting the answer to this seemingly simple problem. I am trying to make an eye blink at random between 1-15 second intervals. I have a MC of the eye blinking, only 10 frames long, set on my stage (an outline of a head/face). On the first frame of the eye blinking MC labeled “Eye” I have this code:
stop();
random_number = Math.ceil(Math.random()*15000);
delay = setInterval(this, “play”, random_number);
At first it seems like the code will work, then it appears to overlap itself over and over and over until the eye starts to blink rapidly without hesitation. Am I missing something? Or is the idea of getting this to work more complicated then it lets on… :sad2:
