1. You can't.

2. What do you mean by random answer choices? Are the choices preset, and just scrambled, or something else? Example, there are only four choices, but each time you see the question the order of a, b, c, and d, are different?

who knows? since GE uses C code, you could probably expand from games

you´re right but then still it would make not that much sense to use GE ;) (at least thats my humble opinion)

On mouse button down of any of those actores, you'll just make it a matter of luck with something like int rNum=rand(2);if(rNum==1)//action;

On mouse button down -> Script Editor:
Code: Select all
int rNum=rand(2);
if(rNum==1)
{
    //Do the action you want to do when he gets the "right" answer
}
