Random actor movement

justinodunn

Hi, how do I make an actor move randomly? As for movement I'm not talking about changing basic x and y directions, I'm talking something like Agar.io here (). Smooth movement? Thanks.

@justinodunn -- the movement does not seem random to me. It looks as if it is following the cursor. And the other players movements are not random either. They are being steered as well.

Hi yes I know I just posted the video to show the kind of movement that the AI should have. Smooth and doesn't rapidly change.

Make a 'real' attribute, let's call it 'A'.

Change A to random (0,360)

Constrain Rotation to 90*sin((time*20)+A)+40*sin((time*((A/100)+10))+A)+22*sin(time *111)+37*sin(time*87)

Move / Direction 0 relative to actor, Speed 100.
