I am using this random motion script, i tried to control the speed by using microphone… the only possible way so far i know :crying: is using setinterval and links the interval together with mic value…:crying: but is it possible? i have tried few times and it is not working so far…:crying:

acceleration = 3  
newpos = function () {  
ranx = Math.round((Math.random ()\*300));  
rany = Math.round ((Math.random ()\*450));  
}  
newpos();  
this.onEnterFrame = function() {  
this.\_x += ((ranx-this.\_x)/acceleration);  
this.\_y += ((rany-this.\_y)/acceleration);  
if (Math.round(this.\_x) == ranx || Math.round(this.\_y) == rany) {  
newpos();  
}  
};

```auto
mic = Microphone.get();
mic.setUseEchoSuppression(true);
mic.useEchoSuppression;
myMC.attachAudio(mic);
onEnterFrame = function () {
	if (myMC._x > Stage.width - 50) {
		myMC._x = 50;
	} else {
		myMC._x += mic.activityLevel;
	}
};

```
