Loop MC

Is there a way to make a movie wait a random number before it plays it again?


thanks,
dny

 

[billwatson]

do you mean wait for a random number of seconds ?

if so last frame of movie clip

time = Math.round(Math.random()*10000)
paused = setInterval(wait,time);
stop();


first frame of movie clip

function wait(){
clearInterval(paused);
gotoAndPlay(1);
}

Thanks Mr. Watson.

I put the code on some buttons with mc and it works, but when i rollover to another button quick, it conflicts with my main movie. The movie starts reapeating itself. What can i do to fix this?

what code is on the rollover?

 

[llldnylll]

yup the code for rollover was messing things up.


I had:

stop();
gotoAndPlay("1"


Changed it to:

stop();
gotoAndPlay("Web"

Just added an Instance Name
