How do you make a sprite move around randomly?

Olinguitogirl

I found a studio with cool projects with sprites that move around randomly. How can I do this?!!!

It couldn't be done without this block

(pick random () to ())

Play my latest game, Pixel Town 2.

It's very simple:

when green flag clicked
forever
    
go to x: (pick random (-240) to (240)) y: (pick random (-180) to (180))
wait [put number here] secs
end

And done! Easy, uh?

when green flag clicked
forever
    glide (1) secs to x: (pick random (-240) to (240)) y: (pick random (-240) to (240))
end

I agree with everything they say.

when gf clicked
forever
repeat until <(pick random (1) to (100)) = (probability of changing directions % :: grey)>
move (speed :: grey) steps
end
point in direction (pick random (1) to (360))
end

The ability to compose a function of more complex functions does not invalidate the usefulness of said function. | Test how well your computer runs Scratch! | The platypus lives.

when green flag clicked
forever
if <(pick random (1) to (30)) = [18]> then
    
change x by (5)

Then to make the charater move left just make the X chnage by -5. You can also make the character point in the direction that the move.

Easy peasy.

forever
    
go to x: (pick random (1) to (100)) y: (pick random (1) to (100))
end

I think this topic has been dealt with so should be treated as closed. Also, you needed to use -180 to 180 for y!

I made a tutorial on moving randomly with actions!

for a controlled one, do

when green flag clicked
forever
    
glide (2) secs to x: ((pick random (-240) to (240))) y: (pick random (-240) to (240))
end

for a crazy one do

when green flag clicked

forever
    
move (pick random (5) to (25)) steps
point in direction ((pick random (180) to (-180)) v)
end

I dunno why but the

when green flag clicked

isn't connected to the

forever
    
end

Hi guys! I just made a game with a random sprite. If you guys could leave a comment on my new game and help me with the random movements and bugs, it would be really great. The game is called =https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/96221896/#player]Gundam, Zaft Reborn

move () steps
turn ccw () degrees
turn cw () degrees
point in direction ( v)
point towards [ v]
go to x: () y: (0)

when I start as a clone
stop [ v]
repeat until <>
wait until <>
if <> then
forever
    
repeat ()
wait () secs
    
end

end

    
end
