Hi forum

Im using the code from this tutorial

[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/random\_motion.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/random_motion.htm)

and im trying to use it for a butterfly, ive got it moving ranomly on the page and I have got it rotating in one direction using the code below . I want it to change the direction that it rotates in a kind of random way

onClipEvent(enterFrame) {  
this.\_rotation -=6;

}

if there is any one who can help that would be great :ch:
