This is a basic card shuffler routing. You will need to name your cards by suit and by number, starting with 2 and going to 14, like so... 1-2,1-3,1-4,1-5, etc. up to 4-14 Also have the back of the card graphic named 0-0 This does not have any AI as it is just the shuffling and swapping routine. For more detailed examples and explination check out the article in the "How do I...?" section.
