FLASH: delete vars from a list

[Tewes]

Hi folks,

this is my problem. Basically I´m trying to learn about randomizing. This is

what I did so far:


I have 10 MCs on the stage. I want to make four of them randomizely visible.

The first thing I do is setting them all invisible:


=> first frame (where "Sichtbarkeit" is the german expression for

visibility)


Set Variable: "i" = 1

Loop While (i<=10)

      Set Property ("zahl_"&i, Sichtbarkeit) = false

      Set Variable: "i" = i+1

End Loop



Next: I create a list of ten variables and give each of the variables as a

value the name of one of my MCs:



=> second frame


Set Variable: "i" = 1

Loop While (i<=10)

      Set Variable: "rd_"&i = "zahl_"&i

      Set Variable: "i" = i+1

End Loop


Now the "randomizer":


=> third frame:


Set Variable: "i" = 1

Loop While (i<=4)

      Set Variable: "random" = Random (10)+1

      Set Property (eval("rd_"&random), Sichtbarkeit) = 1

      Set Variable: "i" = i+1

End Loop


Everything works fine - but now my problem: how can I avoid that one number

is chosen twice, or even three times in the random-function. Means I get

1-1-5-6, or 1-2-1-1? My idea is to delete on variable from the var.-list.

But how can I achieve this? Any ideas? May be anytutorials about this

topic??


Thanks in advance
