hw shooter(so far)

[True Anarchist]

I have been for a small while been working on a game called homework shooter... it is attached to this post... that is what I have so far and it works very reliably. I am trying to make it have different sounds and different "exploded"-type messages. I am using the math.random() function to achieve this...I know this may be a noobish question but is there a way to get this code:

_root.sight.gotoAndPlay(numb);

refering to a movie clip, to reconsider this code:

num=math.round(math.random()*5);
if(num=0){
	numb=2
}
if(num=1){
	numb=5
}
if(num=2){
	numb=11
}
if(num=3){
	numb=14
}
if(num=4){
	numb=17
}
if(num=5){
	numb=8
}

constantly so that each time you click it comes up with a new message thing...?

ok... thanks in advance to anyone that can help me out with this...

Try this:

code:

---

sounds = ["snd1","gfire","bloom","ups","bing","snd2"];

fr = [2,5,11,14,17,8]

mySound = new Sound();

btn.onPress = function(){

	num = random(6);

	mc.attachSound(sounds[num]);

	 if (_root.target_mc.hitTest(_xmouse, _ymouse, false)){

		 _root.sight.gotoAndPlay(fr[num]);

	 }

}

thanks for that...!
that solves individual sound problem...

1 more thing

if I have a movie clip, that start with crosshairs... and when you shoot(click) it moves to a frame of "exploded" and playes a sound of me saying "exploded"..

is there a way where i can randomize the sound and clip frame to go to but still keep them togather .. so when a message like "imploded comes up randomly out of 6 the sounf "imploded" will be with it... I hope this give you a good enough description... If you need more info i would be happy to provide thr .fla!

thanks for the sound code...
