Hai all.

I was curious as to how hard it is to programme a dice roll into flash.
I have an idea for a turn based game you see, and I want to keep things simple.

Would it be hard to programme in random chances?

Not that hard you can go here for a tutorial.

Yes, flash has a few very helpful Math functions that allow you to do a lot of different things with numbers. If you're using AS 2.0 Math.random() takes a random number 0 - whatever you want, in your case it would be:
Math.random() * 6

But if you're using AS 3.0 I'm sure the tutorial above would help

Why did this get resurrected? I didn't bring it back up.

This is pretty ancient, you could see how much of a noob I was before. *Tries to cover it up*.

I noticed a lot of old topic are getting resurrected for like no reason.

Yeah, that's kinda weird. Maybe the forums are a bit glitchy? I see your post as the only one not from '08 XD
