Randomizer on 3 Grouped buttons, How?

[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 :)

[DanH]

@d-healey Just trying this out. What if I wanted only one of the buttons to be on at a time? Like a radio group. I can get them to go on and off randomly, but not like a radio group...

[d.healey]

@DanH Check out my tabbed interfaces video.

[DanH]

@d-healey ah yes of course :) I'm already using it!

[DanH]

@d-healey Ok I am failing miserably at trying to combine these two scripts

[d.healey]

@DanH Post a minimal snippet

PS - Just looking back at the tabbed interface script and realising that I actually understand what is does, as opposed to not having a clue a few weeks back :face_with_tears_of_joy: Thanks for the help on that score....
