Change Attribute: self.Motion.Linear Velocity.Y To: random(70,120)*(-1)^(random(1,2))

    self.Motion.Linear Velocity.Y
    An objects Y (up / down) velocity (Speed over time) is to a random number between 70 and 120.
    That value is then made negative (-1)
    so -70 to -120
    then that is taken to either an exponent of a float between 1 or 2
    so -70^-1 or -70^2 to -120^1 or -120^2
