Hi.

I´m new to Gamesalad and I like it a lot. I have played around with it and watched a few video tutorials etc. My plans are to start off with creating a game for my steph daughter. She is not like other girls on her age. She is 7 years old, but in her head she is no more than 4 year at the most. She is active on iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch, so a game designed for her would be very useful. I have called the game Angelinas World (or in Norwegian : Angelinas Verden). My plans was to publish it on App Store for free and let schools and other childeren with the same problems in Norway use it for free. Maybe create an international version as well. :)

First of I plan to create a section of the game where 3 random letters comes up and I prerecord a sound message like : "Where is the letter A?" and when she finds it and press it, she will get a loud cheer and move on to the next 3 random letters etc. I will create scenes with the letters and I could just move to the next scene when she answers correct, but I want it to be more random. Let´s say I make 10 scenes with letters ABC 1 to 10. Instead of going to ABC1->ABC2->ABC3 etc. I want it to randomly generate a new scene when she is finished with the scene. More like ABC1->ABC5->ABC3 etc. How do I do that? Any suggestions or tips?

Best regards,

Marius

    Create a attribute called random

    Then in your actor when an answer is correct have it:

    change attribute game.random to random(1,10)

    then you'll need rules that say

    if random=1

    change scene to ABC1

    if random=2

    change scene to ABC2

    etc....

    remember on each scene to have an attribute straight away that changes game.random back to 0

    ya know. As your cause seems quite noble I'd like to offer to send you the project file to my tiki bear phonics game:

    http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/tiki-bear-phonics-hd-consonant/id387208347?mt=8

    I think it might cover some of the things you are trying to do.

    Except in your case, it won't be a button that triggers it!
