flash actionscript: Hello there.

I have an image of a lamp turned off and another with the same lamp on.
I need to do it flicker several times but with random intervals.

Do you have any idea?
Any suggestion?
Any link?

Thank you.
Abel.

Well since it needs to be in random intervals probably the fastest way
to hack something like that together is using as follows:

function flickerImage() {
var rand1 = Math.round(Math.random()*5));
if(rand == 5) {
image_mc._visible = false;
} else {
image._visible = true;
}
}


flickerInterval = setInterval(flickerImage,100);


Now what that does is call the flickerImage interval every 100
milliseconds, get a random number between 0 and 5. If the random number
is equal to 5 it sets the visibility your image (embedded in a movieclip
with instance name image_mc) to false, otherwise sets it to true.

By tweaking the random range and setInterval time interval you can
influence the speed and random flickering.

Hope this helps!
Peter
