Is it better to use Math.round() or Math.random() reason I am asking I think I read somehwere that one was better. My problem is that I have a number of movie clips that are attach dynamically. They move randomly on the stage but for some reason they just stop moving randomly… I think there was a post somehwere about that but cannot seem to find it.
