Easy to use shop and inventroy populated by an array!
  • Could someone please assist, either with guidance or a code sample?

    If I generate an array with the code

    Set size to (random(4,11), random(4,11),1)[/code:3fo36ddv]
    
    how can I ensure that, regardless of array size, the array is always populated as follows:
    
    [img="http://s17.postimg.org/9yjw9oz3z/array.jpg"]
    
    with the "1"'s around the edges, and the "0"'s filling the rest ?

  • I guess what you'd do is first set a (local) variable to the random number (you should use floor(random(4,12), because you don't want floating numbers..

    You could then use those variables to get the last lines in the x and y direction (the first is ofcourse always 0)

    If I understand correctly...
