choose a number between aviable numbers

Hi guys,

I'm having trouble to make something I thougt would be easy.

I have a pool of aviable characters (around 20), and on the start of the layout, I want to choose some of them (around 10), only once each.

Since its only a quick project I dont even want to be a clean code, I'm ok with some hardcoding if it's easier.

Right now I have a 4 variables and a dictionnary in which I repeate the following code:

Variable: RandomKey = number
Variable: Used= string
Variable: index= number
Variable: count= number (is used to repeat the function 10 times)

every 0.5sec
count <= 10 
	> Function > call "test"

Function on "test"
-Set randomKey to > int(random(0,Dictionary.KeyCount))
-Set index to > -1
	Dictionnary For Each key
	-Add 1 to > index
		Index = randomKey
		find(used,randomKey)=1
			-Add 1 to > count
			-set used to > used&","&randomKey

It's very hard to read the unformatted code you posted..

Since you don't need a clean solution, the easiest one is to add all 20 characters to the layout and do this:

System For each Character Order by random(1)
Loopindex>9	: Character destroy

Repeat 10 times
	Set r to int(random(array.width))
	Create character with animation frame r
	array delete element r

Hi! Sorry for the unformatted code, I never used the option in the forum, I will try to fix this.

Thanks for the solutions, I will check them out!

Edit:

(I did fixed it, I hope it's better)

Alright, your solusitons inspired me: I delete the dictionnary.currentKey at the end of the function and it works as I wanted.

Thanks!
