Use the action "test a variable's value", set the variable to be the expression "f:random_int(1, 4)" and set a redirection value for 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.
I was wondering, is the redirection value the frame number? Also, what is action name now?


EDIT: I am now reading a separate guide, and if I still don't understand, then I will say so.

EDIT2: I understand now, but however, is it possible to make two numbers multiply each other?

Yes. (I just checked, it was not on the list, but is in the priority order list.)


So to get both remainder and integer answer, I wll need both / and %?

When you write expressions, do you put it literally on the text box or is there an action that lets you write it somewhere?

Do you mean the dialogue box? You don't write the expression codes in there, but you can put the variables in the dialogues. You put the variable info in textboxes in the actions. :)

I figured it out myself, but thanks anyway. But how do you stop the life bar from flashing?

Use the same action that you used to make it flash. However, set the value to "0".

Hey, I have a question for cross-examinations. The blue WITNESS TESTIMONY thing works fine, but the little blinking 'Testimony' in the top left of the screen disappears once my witness starts talking. I have a sneaking suspicion that it should be in the background tab instead of the character tab where I put it. Is that it?

Yeah, special sprites dissapear after that specific frame. What you need to do is create two frames, make the first one where you put the blinking testimony and the second one the actual line of dialogue.
