I just ran across this, and while it seems really nice I think there's a logic flaw. Each time I shuffle the deck and deal out the full deck the last card is always (4 times in a row) the same.]]> Thu, 21 Feb 2013 01:54:05 +0000 http://www.scirra.com/forum/randomized-an-array-for-a-deck-of-cards_topic45833.html http://www.scirra.com/forum/randomized-an-array-for-a-deck-of-cards_topic45833_post334832.html#334832 Author: kittiewan

If you want standard 54-card deck, you can find a very nice free vector version at svg-cards.sourceforge.net

Otherwise, I make my own graphics. You may be able to find someone to help you with that, or find some free graphics on the internet. There are threads about creating art in this forum, too. One of my favorite site for learning to make game art without having to buy expensive tools is 2d game art for developers

Glad my tutorial was helpful!

Depending on how you want the cards to fan out, you might also want to rotate them slightly. This is easiest if the card origin is somewhere on the bottom (either bottom left, right or center.)

loop from 0 to the total number of cards-1. use the loopindex +/- any offset you want to position each card as you loop thru]]> Fri, 08 Jun 2012 16:59:15 +0000 http://www.scirra.com/forum/randomized-an-array-for-a-deck-of-cards_topic45833.html http://www.scirra.com/forum/randomized-an-array-for-a-deck-of-cards_topic45833_post332551.html#332551 Author: jolibidi

Hi Kyatric! The tutorial is great. I was able to make changes so that I can assign the card position after I click on it. I've been trying to make one other change but I think it's way too complicated.. I'm trying to spread the cards in a sort of a fan, (each card cover the one before it with a bit of a offset or padding on the left) instead of placing in a tableau. Any suggestion how to go about it? ]]> Fri, 08 Jun 2012 01:28:21 +0000 http://www.scirra.com/forum/randomized-an-array-for-a-deck-of-cards_topic45833.html http://www.scirra.com/forum/randomized-an-array-for-a-deck-of-cards_topic45833_post332319.html#332319 Author: Kyatric

Hi @jolibidi
The creating a memory match game tutorial shows some way to have more control about the cards layout.

Would it help you in solving your issue ?]]> Thu, 07 Jun 2012 03:05:15 +0000 http://www.scirra.com/forum/randomized-an-array-for-a-deck-of-cards_topic45833.html http://www.scirra.com/forum/randomized-an-array-for-a-deck-of-cards_topic45833_post332314.html#332314 Author: jolibidi

Hi Everybody! I am working on a card game and this project was a great place to start. I need to make one change and so far I was not able to find a solution. The project posted in this discussion deals the cards in a row. I need to assign a position to each new card... How can I change the events so that I can each new card where to go...

Thanks so much!]]> Thu, 07 Jun 2012 02:24:55 +0000 http://www.scirra.com/forum/randomized-an-array-for-a-deck-of-cards_topic45833.html http://www.scirra.com/forum/randomized-an-array-for-a-deck-of-cards_topic45833_post323661.html#323661 Author: seridras

I downloaded the plugin that was listed in that post, and still had an issue with trying to open the capx like jlouter mentioned.

I also have an alternative shuffle in case anyone would like it:

This should address the issue mentioned above for incomplete shuffling.
