Pick 3 random objects from the family of 9 objects

Hi, I need 3 random sprites show up on the screen every round. I have a family of 9 objects. Can you please suggest the easiest way to do that?

Thanks

I think this might work, there might be a more simple version but this should do the trick

It worked! Thank you so much.

Good Luck on creating your game :)

FlagiusBaconSwagg You can do it a little easier all in one event with System Create Object By Name action.

Repeat 3 times: System Create Object (By Name) "Sprite"&int(random(1,10))

Note, that this code can create 2 or 3 instances of the same sprite. If you need to create 3 different sprites, it's a bit more difficult.

thats cool

This is made a lot easier with the Advanced Random plugin, which allows you to create permutation tables.

I've included three ways of doing it in this demo:

dropbox.com/s/kkcz7fhjn7ppt26/pickNrandomObj.c3p

1) Spawn a random family member - this has the benefit that you can use non-numbered sprite names, but can result in repeats.

2) Use a permutation table to pick a numbered sprite - no repeats.

3) Use a permutation table and an array loaded with the family member names to pick a non-numbered sprite - no repeats.

Hi, it looks like I can't open it with browser Construct 3? Where can I download r193?

Thanks in advance.

Found it. Thanks for the solution, I'll test it.
