random keyframe

[samanthayy]

the gotoandplay (random(x)) don't seem to work? the movie just keeps on playing in order.

also, is there a way to pause a movie for a given time?

[tg]

check the tutorials for pausing, or do a search here, should be lots of threads on that.

your gotoAndPlay() code should work. paste your exact as.

[samanthayy]

so what does the value x in the random function stand for?

[red penguin]

if you say x=25, then it'll be that. You need an integer in there for that to work...

[tg]

like the penguin says set x to a number - if you want it to select on of your possible frames, then put in the value of your last frame (if you have 10 frames make x=10).
