Randomly placing Actors

henriquesv

Hello!

I have 4 groups of 4 different kinds of actors to place. Every group has to have 1 actor of each kind o actors. For example:
Group 1: Green, Red, Yellow and Blue.
Group 2: Red, Yello, Blue and Green.
... so on

I want to start a Scene placing these actors together in a random order.

Any ideas to do this?

I first thought about using a Table. But how to pick and place this actor?

Thank you!

The way you pick random selections without repeating is to place possible values in rows:

Green
Red
Yellow
Blue

And then choose a random row:
Change attribute self.row (integer) to random(1,tableRowCount(tableName))

Delete the table row at index self.row

Use self.row in a rule that spawns an actor depending on the value of that attribute.
