VS 2010 - Picking Random Items (weapons)

Sep 21, 2011

how to go about picking the random weapons. When you generate a random class, the user must first enter their current rank (level). This is because you are unable to use certain guns until you reach a specified level. This keeps the program from giving out guns the user can't use. What I am doing is allowing the user to give certain parameters as to what type of gun they want to use (or don't want to use). For example, I have checkboxes for the user to pick if they want assault rifles, SMGs, LMGs, Snipers, Shotguns, RPG, etc.

I did this in another version of this program I made, but the only option was to pick whether or not you wanted RPGs included. So, it was easy enough to check if the weapon was an RPG and if it was simply generate another random weapon. I could do this, but with the number of options there are, I don't think this would be the best solution.

VS 2010 Picking A Random Number Only Once?

Oct 6, 2011

I'm trying to figure out how to make a number be randomly picked but only picked once when a button is clicked. I've got the simple random number code down already but I can't seem to figure out how to have it picked only once.This is basic random code that I'm using right now.

Randomize()
Dim value As Integer = CInt(Int((14 * Rnd()) + 1))

It picks out a number from 1 to 14 and returns it as an integer in "value", and I'm using to set that to open a specific form but I don't want that specific form to open more than once in a session. So if the number three was already picked out then it could never be returned ever again.

Random Picture Sqaure Picking?

Jun 6, 2009

trying to finish up some odds and ends of a game I am making.I have 9 picture boxes, and after the user picks one, i want the computer to randomly pick another, then the user and so on until all 9 boxes are full.This is what I have so far. It will let the user click a box with one character, then the user has to click another box and it fills it with the other character, but instead of the user having to click the second time, i want it to be automatically filled, unless it is already filled.

VS 2010 Random Items From Listbox

Apr 20, 2012

I am wondering how i would go about taking multiple items (randomly) from a listbox and displaying them in a label!Now this listbox wouldn't have to be visible, maybe i can do it without it even being a listbox?I want to have 25 labels and each one recalls a random value from the list (doesnt matter about being unique and the list will contain about 20-30 items)Im just a bit stumped on how to do it as ive done some looking into it but most people are asking for randomized numbers or unique items where as i need randomized items from a list which aren't unique!

VS 2010 Draw Rectangle (random Times, Random Location)?

Nov 26, 2011

I am practicing using the drawing commands, and have gotten a grass background and black happy face that moves around the background.It's a 10x10 grid of 50 pixels.I want (at the moment, when i press enter) it to generate a random number of trees (15 ~ 25) at random locations on the background. The program doesn't freak out about anything, and the variables seem to be right (using stop commands) but it's not drawing anything. Here is the code for the "GenerateTrees" command I have for when I press enter.

Private Sub GenerateTrees()
NumberOfTrees = Int(Rnd() * 10) + 15
For i = 0 To NumberOfTrees - 1
bmap.MakeTransparent(Color.Fuchsia)

How To Get Random Items From Array

Aug 26, 2010

I have an array with 280 items in it. I only want 140 of those, so I want to pick them at random. So I need to generate a random number between 0 and the source array's getupperbound property. I think. Is there a more suitable way to pluck an item from an array. I wonder if there's a way to ensure that you don't choose the same item more than once. I suppose I could randomly sort the source array and choose the first 140 items, that would ensure I don't get a repeat item. But could be inefficient if the source array is much larger than the destination array, because I'd be shuffling more values than I need to shuffle. I suppose it's a sampling problem.

Select Random Items With Parameters?

Dec 20, 2010

I'm working on a program that will randomly select a loadout(weapon, perks, etc), but the user enters their current level to get the loadout. This is important because certain guns unlock at certain levels, so i don't want someone getting something they can't use.

I'm not sure what the best way of approaching this is. All i can think of is either getting a random item, checking if the user's level is high enough then if it's not high enough do it again.

Randomize The Listbox Items In Just A Random Order

Mar 12, 2010

so I am working on a program with items entered into a listbox. Then when the user clicks a button it will randomize the listbox items in just a random order obviously. I have tried adding it to an array and everything but I ended up just having to start over now because I couldn't find a solution. I can save the contents and everything I know how to do that it's just randomizing the items that I am struggling with. I have searched high and low and have yet to find a conclusion to my problem.

Picking Up Individual Keys?

Feb 10, 2009

I am making a HTML editor and thats the easy par ie saving as .html etc, but i want to also add in the thing thats in VB wherein it picks up the word your typing and make suggestions, i have made it so it can have a data base of a thousand words (1000) and you can add and it loads all fine. Now i need to add in the functionallity to read every Key, i tryed

Code:
If e.KeyCode = Keys.Space Then Scan = ""

But none of this works, is there a better way of getting the the key press and adding it to a string untill space is pressed in which the array is cleared.

Code:
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1

[code]....

So say i had a Tag stored that was "HTML" then as soon as i pressed the < key it would start checking my keys then if i pressed H it would display all word is the drop down box with H at the start then if i followed it with T then M it would show HTML in the box and maby a couple of others that began with HTM, if i then hit enter it would add in the L> thus compleating it and printing "<HTML>"

Picking Up Strings From CMD Command?

Jan 29, 2010

So I've tried Process and starting a cmd.exe and send commands directly to that window. And then picking up the values written to the cmd.exe window.
The code looks like this:
Dim arrServers As ArrayList
Dim s(ListBoxServers.Items.Count) As String
ListBoxServers.Items.CopyTo(s, 0)
arrServers = New ArrayList(s)
Using P As New Process
[Code] .....
But is looks like it doesn't "press enter" or something. Meaning, I don't get any results from the command. I don't even get a "'command' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." like you normally get if it doesn't understand the syntax.

Script To Say .jpg OR .bmp - Picking Whichever It Is?

May 15, 2012

We use some software at work called nicelabel, which prints out box end labels by dragging data from a database. We currently have two templates that we use, one for jpgs and one for bmps. For example this is the code that is ran on the picture on our box end label -

[Code]....

Now, if the relevant image in the folder is a .bmp, the process will fail and no image will be assigned to the box end label. Vice versa with if we run the .bmp version of that code and it's a .jpg. Is there any way we can modify that script to say .jpg OR .bmp, picking whichever it is? For example, look for this file with a .jpg at the end, if you cant find it look for this file with a .bmp instead?

Intellisense Not Picking Up Sender Property?

Sep 24, 2009

When working with the code within a control's subprocedure if you type it brings up intellisense as you would expect: Code: sender. Within the intellisense there is no text property listed to select from however if you just type "text" after the "sender." it allows it. It also doesn't capatilize the T in text after you leave the line as you would expect to see when working with other properties. This is the first occurence that I've seen where an item was not included in intellisense but allowed it without errors. This is a big code saver and discovery for me as it cuts my other previous methods of extracting the control's text down to a single simple line.

Not Picking Up Global Constants Via Intellisense?

Jan 27, 2010

In our VB.net coding project, we have a module with the code shown below. In our frmMain.vb, we use every thing you see in the modeul.

However, when happily coding along, intellisense doesn't seem to see these or pick them up.

How can we change this so Visual Studio's Intellisense picks up our constants? For example, when typing:

If System.IO.File.Exists(SERVERS_CONFIGURATION_FILES) Then

I want to be able to type something and then the dot, such as Me.whatever and have it picked up. Below is our module:

Module ConstantsAndEnums
Public Const PROGRAM_NAME As String = "Server Monitor .NET"
Public Const TOOLTIP_BUBBLE_DISPLAY_TIME As Integer = 10000

VB10 Not Picking Up Access Database?

My reference to the MS Access database file is as follows :-

Do I need to change any of this syntax or is there some other reason why VB10 won't show anything ?

Oledb - SELECT Through Oledbcommand In .net Not Picking Up Recent Changes?

Sep 28, 2009

I'm using the following code to work out the next unique Order Number in an access database. ServerDB is a "System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection"

Dim command As New OleDb.OleDbCommand("", serverDB)
command.CommandText = "SELECT max (ORDERNO) FROM WORKORDR"
iOrder = command.ExecuteScalar()
NewOrderNo = (iOrder + 1)

If I subsequently create a WORKORDR (using a different DB connection), the code will not pick up the new "next order number."e.g.

iFoo = NewOrderNo
CreateNewWorkOrderWithNumber(iFoo)
iFoo2 = NewOrderNo

will return the same value to both iFoo and iFoo2. If I Close and then reopen serverDB, as part of the "NewOrderNo" function, then it works. iFoo and iFoo2 will be correct. Is there any way to force a "System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection" to refresh the database in this situation without closing and reopening the connection. e.g. Is there anything equivalent to serverdb.refresh or serverdb.FlushCache

How I create the order.I wondered if this could be caused by not updating my transactions after creating the order. I'm using an XSD for the order creation, and the code I use to create the record is ...

Sub CreateNewWorkOrderWithNumber(ByVal iNewOrder As Integer)
Dim OrderDS As New CNC
Dim OrderAdapter As New CNCTableAdapters.WORKORDRTableAdapter
