Randomly picked tiles in background??

Hello

This is my first post on forum and wan't to say I love the C2 ;)

To my question:

Im trying to create a background with three diferent tiles but I want them to be random picked so my background will be randomly created. My tiles are 96x96px. I tryed with tiled background but can't make it happen because you can only pick one tile.

For better understanding: I have a stone tiles but if I create tiled bckg. my background looks wery borring so I want to add two (or one even)diferent stone tile look so it will be more interesting.

They should be mixed randomly.

Can this be done?

Hope u understand what I mean.

Thx in advance ;)

Yes you can, just replace your backgroundTile object by a sprite.

With sprites, you can chose different animations or frames of an animation. Create a few grass tiles in the grass animation, create a private variable for that object called "skin", set skin to floor(random(N)) on creation, with N being the last frame you got +1.

Thanks for the reply

Im not following you here :o

Create a few grass tiles in the grass animation, (grass??, you mean stone?)

create a private variable for that object called "skin", set skin to floor(random(N)) on creation, with N being the last frame you got +1. (I dont understand that part)

Where do I put that and how do create private variable u mean instance variable? Why floor?

Sry I know, Im new to this but somehow I don't get your anwser. Is there maybe any caps for this already?

Thank you
