How do I rondomly select an animation for an object?

Hey there, so I have 3 enemy variations for this game where the player is stationary in the middle of the screen and enemies are spawned around him in a random position.

I was wondering if it was possible to make it so that when they spawn, they are a random 1 of the 3 enemy sprites I have.

Basically, have a line of code that makes it so when the enemy is spawned, they are a random 1 of 3 sprite animations (Each animation is just a variation of the enemy).

Thanks again guys! :D

— sorry my mistake ...

Ok, this is something I made very quick, you should tweak it to work for 3 animations and to work better

Trigger a random animation when an enemy is spawned:

Name all your animations with growing numbers. Example: Ani1, Ani2, Ani3, Ani4.

Then, in the field to select animation (if you have 10 animations), put this text:

"Ani" & rand(1,10)

— nice work, I havent thought of doing it that way

Programmer25, thanks, you're welcome too, nice know that I can help you. Any other question, please ask or send me a private message.

Hi ,

you can use the expression "choose".

For example if you have the animations "default", "fly", and "run" ; you can use : SET ANIMATION TO - Choose("default","fly","run")...

—, very good, more simple and direct than my idea. \o/

This is the best answer in this topic and the easier/simple way of achieve it.
