I am looking at the Kirupa code for random movement (Random movement in Flash MX), and I am trying to figure out if I can limit the movement to the shape of an oval.

I want to do an overhead shot of a bunch of little people swiming in an oval swimming pool.

Does anybody know of a way this is possible?

Thanks
