Randomizer on 3 Grouped buttons, How?

[Natan]

@d-healey said in Randomizer on 3 Grouped buttons, How?:

at it and see how you get on. When you get stuck show me what you've got and we'll go from there.

Let me focus on it, thanks Sir :)

[Natan]

I only can do it in this dirty way :(

Make a new file. Generate a random value between 0 and 2 and output it to the console.

[Natan]

@d-healey Is This Good Sir?

It's a good start but there are a few problems.

1: I said forget about buttons. Just Console.print() in on init.
2: Your function is generating numbers between 0 and 3, you need 0 and 2

This is all that was needed

const randomValue = Math.randInt(0, 3);
Console.print(randomValue);

Since you're addicted to buttons let's move on to them :p

Add your 4 buttons, put the 3 you want to be random into an array. In the callback for the other button generate a random number between 0 and 2, like you did in your last snippet, and output it to the console.

[Natan]

@d-healey Haha :) Sir!!!

[Natan]

@d-healey No Idea,can't do it by myself :)

[d.healey]

@Natan Yes you can, one step at a time. You're not by yourself, I'm here :D

Can you create an array?
Can you create a button?
Can you put a reference to the button into the array?

[Natan]

@d-healey
I'm still here:

Content.makeFrontInterface(600, 500);

const randomValue = Math.randInt(0, 3);
Console.print(randomValue);


const var Btns = [Content.getComponent("Button3"),
                  Content.getComponent("Button2"),
                  Content.getComponent("Button1")];

                  
                  
inline function onRandITControl(component, value)
{
    

};

Content.getComponent("RandIT").setControlCallback(onRandITControl);

[d.healey]

Perfect. Now move the randomValue inside the button's callback function, you'll need to use a local variable instead of a const.

You can use the random value as the Btns array index to turn on one of the buttons.

[Natan]

@d-healey is this correct?

Content.makeFrontInterface(600, 500);

const randomValue = Math.randInt(0, 3);
Console.print(randomValue);


const var Btns = [Content.getComponent("Button3"),
                  Content.getComponent("Button2"),
                  Content.getComponent("Button1")];

                  

inline function onRandITControl(component, value)
{
    local idx = buttons.indexOf(component);

    
};

Content.getComponent("RandIT").setControlCallback(onRandITControl);

[d.healey]

@Natan Not even close :p

Move the randomValue stuff inside the button's callback. You'll need to use a local variable instead of a const. You can delete the Console.print() we don't need that now.

[Natan]

@d-healey Lol

Content.makeFrontInterface(600, 500);




const var Btns = [Content.getComponent("Button3"),
                  Content.getComponent("Button2"),
                  Content.getComponent("Button1")];

                  

inline function onRandITControl(component, value)
{
local randomValue = Math.randInt(0, 3);
Console.print(randomValue);    

};

Content.getComponent("RandIT").setControlCallback(onRandITControl);

[d.healey]

Now we're getting somewhere!

We don't need Console.print() any more, that was just for testing the random value which we know works now.

Do you know how to turn a button on or off by changing its value?

[Natan]

@d-healey Yeah, I Guess I'm So Close :)
Wait Sir

[Natan]

@d-healey Haha, That Was A Real Challenge, And Yep This is it :)

Content.makeFrontInterface(600, 500);


const var Btns = [Content.getComponent("Button3"),
                  Content.getComponent("Button2"),
                  Content.getComponent("Button1")];

                  
inline function onRandITControl(component, value)
{

    local randomValue = Math.randInt(0, 3);
    Console.print(randomValue);   

    if (value == 1)
    {
       Btns[randomValue].setValue(1);
    }      
};

Content.getComponent("RandIT").setControlCallback(onRandITControl);

[d.healey]

Yeah looks like you got it! Well done!

[Natan]

@d-healey :) Haha Yessir :)
Thanks You Dear David, True Legend :)

[d.healey]

@Natan You did it, not me. I just nudged you :p

[Natan]

@d-healey Thanks for the help, You're a great guy :)
