I want to know how I can make a sprite appear by clicking a button in a random fashion.

Let's say I have ten sprites all in hide stage and a "Show Sprite" button. By clicking the Show Sprite button, I would like a randomly selected sprite to show up. Broadcast does not seem to work since it does not allow randomization.

Any help will be appreciated.

thanks.

Here's something you could use:

Put this in the button sprite:

when gf clicked
set [show v] to (0)
forever
 if <(mouse down?) and (touching [mouse pointer v]?)>
  set [show v] to (pick random (1) to (10))//This randomizes what shows.
 end

And use this in the 10 randomly showing sprites:

when gf clicked
forever
 if <(show) = (1)>//1 for the first sprite, 2 for the second, ect...
  show
 else
  hide
 end

I hope that this helps!

Thank you for your help.
Using a simple number in broadcast makes sense.
