no no, not specific, random is what i want.
that random function should work a treat,

thanks for that Alan.
I really appreciate the effort you make helping out me and other newbies.

this is what i ended up with, if anyone was interested in how it ended up working.


//setup values

int $mynumber;
int $i;

//loop for 380 frames

for ($i=1; $i <380; $i++) {

$mynumber = rand(50,80);

if (frame % $mynumber == 0) {
pointLightShape1.intensity = rand(0,1);

//increase random value to progress

$mynumber += $mynumber;
}
}
