Hi!  
I read this (great) tutorial [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/connectedLines.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/connectedLines.htm)  
and I’m trying to generate more “blueCircles”.  
Everything goes OK, but, sometimes, it’s overlapping.  
How can I generate it not-so-random?  
I mean: random, but without overlapping?

Thanks for helping.
