[SOLVED] Randomising the location of an object
Posted: Thu Aug 11, 2016 11:19 am
Hi all,
I have a point and click mini-game where you only have 3 clicks to find a key to open the door.
Originally, I had the key in the "coatpocket" (which was called "key") but I'd like to randomise the location of the key so it's different each time. The key could hide in the "coatpocket", "pottable", "baghook" or "bowltable".
Here's my code:
If my code is a little confusing... There are 2 locks on the door, one with a switch you can flick on and off, and the one that needs the key.
I'm not sure what to add here to change the location of the "key" each time.
