Hello,
I followed the tutorial for random movement, [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/random\_motionMX.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/random_motionMX.htm)
This is working but i dont want the object do straight lines, but if possible natural swirls or movent…
how can i fix this in the actionscript?
Thanx for your reply…
Andreas
