+ Code Snippet

   For x = 101 to 120
      If Npcmove = 300
         Dire = Rnd(4)
         If Dire = 1 then point object x, Object position x(x) + 100, object position y(x), Object position z(x)
         If Dire = 2 then point object x, Object position x(x), object position y(x), Object position z(x) + 100
         If Dire = 3 then point object x, Object position x(x) - 100, object position y(x), Object position z(x)
         If Dire = 4 then point object x, Object position x(x), object position y(x), Object position z(x) - 100
      Endif

   Move object x,0.2

   Next x

   Inc Npcmove

When i use that code, the npc walks along in the same direction at the start each time, then goes a random direction but carries on in the same direction after that instead of changing each time npcmove = 300

P.S that code snippet is in my main loop

Are you resetting npcmove to 0 somewhere?

Lol woops

it works now but they follow the same route each time and although there is 20 objects, they only split into 2 groups

I think you need Randomize at the top of your code.
