Random Object Movement & Animation

Hey everyone.
I am a beginner with Visionaire and Lua and I hope you can help me figure smth out. I was wondering if it is possible to create a setup to have an object move around randomly on the scene and have an animation played at the same time.

So for example I have a snail as an object on my scene and I would like it to move around randomly and have an animation played.
In addition, I am also wondering if you can also randomly rotate an animated object.

When you say move around, do you mean have it walk from point A to point B? or do you mean you want it to seemingly magically teleport around to different locations in the scene? if it's the latter then why not setup the snail as a character? You could then setup a called by other action block & a create a value & then inside of the called by other action block you would do a set random value on the value you created & then do something like this...

if value "example" is 1

send character "snail" to position 100, 100

elseif value "example" is 2

send character "snail" to position 100, 50

elseif...

etc

end if

wait until character "snail" stops

jump to action part #1

Yes I want the object to "walk". From point A to a random new point B. Maybe the picture attached will help.
So the scene is a page on which the snail would be free to crawl around in any direction.

It being a character shouldn't matter. You can also assign multiple directions to characters & it should orientate itself based on which direction it's walking. If you want something that looks more natural & the snail isn't supposed to move very fast/far around the scene, then it being an animation assigned to a scene object & controlled by a curve might be a better idea - though it will be a lot more complicated.

Curves (aka bezier curves) let you create complex pathing patterns, which can also control rotation, scale, etc. A good example of where a curve would work really well, is let's say you want to have a bird swoop in from outside of the scene edge down near to the ground & then swoop back up & maybe do a loop the loop or something just for the fun of it. With curves that would be possible & it wouldn't just be moving from point A to point B in a rigid line, it would appear to gradually rotate & move with the curve lines you have drawn.

By the way, I would recommend joining our discord server if you aren't already on there. I've not been very well the past week, so unfortunately I'm not really up to providing any examples right now, but there's plenty of helpful people always online on the discord server that might be able to provide you with a solution.
