i think you just change the number a bit where it says

this.speed = Math.random()\*4+2;

so i’m guessing jsut chnange the 4 or 2…?!

yeah, that tutorial 🙂  
actually i found out how to make it faster 😛 i just both numbers…

this.speed = Math.random()\*24+12;

and now its much faster 🙂  
only now i’d like to know how i can make it stop at a certain point after like 5 randomly chosen places…if thats even possible ofcourse 😏

thanks alot for u’r reply though 🙂
