Ive created a code of 3 circles locate in the left side of the screen , i want all three to move in a random speed value and in the end 1 of them will get to the end of the screen and win the race. my only problem is that i use the RND command , and the result are not so good , first of all every time i run the program i get the same result so i dont think its random , and seconed there are two circles running the same speed . some1 can help me figure it out ?

Always start any code that involves random numbers with:

RANDOMIZE TIMER()

I won't bore you with the details, do a forum search and you'll find it

@ RisTar_sn

Numbers generated from the "rnd" command are integer... they will never be float. Also you need to add +1 to the random number because circles with zero speed won't move at all.
