Could your flash sprite route a call through a behavior attached to the
flash sprite that then calls your stack manager for you?

You'd need to create string delimiters using the QUOTE keyword. I have no
idea what, if any, is the Flash equivalent:
strCmd = "randomstackmgr.stack[stackpointer].generaterandom(" "E&
"stringvar" "E& ",60)"
flashstackaccess(strCmd)
Perhaps you could set a couple of variables in the flash sprite and then,
when you need the parameters, reach into it with 'getVariable()' commands.
Again, probably easier encapsulated by routing calls through a behavior
attached to the flash sprite.
