How do I make it Play Again & Again & Again & Again

May 8th, 2008, 7:21 am

I just want to make this loop or start over.

What happens is the Function Do Random goes through the slideTo content_mc["section_"+i]._x; that moves along the _X axis


but once it get's to the end the It say's

Line number On/Off

Code: Select all

1. if(i==6) var target_x = home_x-content_mc.section_0._x;
2.     content_mc.slideTo(target_x,"0",2);

I just wanna make this thing start over and play again & again & again.

Line number On/Off

Code: Select all

1. var i:Number = 1;
2.  
3. function DoRandom() {
4. var target_x = home_x - content_mc["section_"+i]._x;
5. content_mc.slideTo( target_x, "0", 2 );
6. i++;
7.  
8. if(i==6) var target_x = home_x-content_mc.section_0._x;
9.     content_mc.slideTo(target_x,"0",2);
10. }  
11.  
12. var intervalID = setInterval(DoRandom, 4000);

Much appreciated for any help,

I just looked up how to do this loop, but it doesn't work.

I sthis the right idea even.

Line number On/Off

Code: Select all

1. function DoRandom() {
2. for (var i=1; i<6; i++) {
3. var target_x = home_x - content_mc["section_"+i]._x;
4. content_mc.slideTo( target_x, "0", 2 );
5. i++;
6. }

Thanks

the set interval should loop until you do a clearInterval(). Basically you're code should repeat every 4 seconds...

you can also do:

Line number On/Off

Code: Select all

1. mc.onEnterFrame = function(){ DoRandom(); }

make sure the movie clip doesnt have a stop actionscript in it

So, It's been figured out.

Basically it was setting i back to 1

I did it in two places.

Works Great!!!
