Im trying my bext to create my first DB classic game.

Im using 3d graphics as a 2d display for my shoot em up (in later level the camera will come into play)

I want to do some sort of random flight path for the aliens to follow (just left and right) but I dont want them just to 'sweep' accross the screen like space invaders. Currently I have tried generating a random number and on the basis of that each alien goes either left or right.

The trouble is they look too random and often shake instead of moving.

Any ideas.

Thanks

Mark.

`I dont know if this will work,
randomize timer()

move=rnd(10)
if move=0 then position sprite 2,sprite x(2),sprite y(2)+1
if move=1 then position sprite 2,sprite x(2),sprite y(2)-1
loop
