Im having trouble workin out a plan with some basic enemy movement. I want the actor to start in a set postion and just float in a random direction and bounce all around the screen. I have tried a few different ways but nothing seems to be the way I want.

Any help would be awesome.
Thanks

    You can check out the movements of the Dougs in this game. They are the "enemy" of innocent girls everywhere. If that's the idea, here's how i did it:

    Create invisible walls just outside of the camera view. In the enemy:

    RULE When collides with wall
    change velocity
    angle - random(0,360)
    speed - random(100,200)

    or you could do it on a timer instead of the walls.

    EVERY .5 seconds (or whatever you want)
    change velocity
    angle - random(0,360)
    speed - random(100,200)
