    Hi, the following equation is courtesy of @firemaplegames for a sine wave back and forth:

    halfWaveHeight * sin( timeFactor * oscillationSpeed) + centerOfWave

    So if you wanted your actor to move downwards in an "s" movement, you'll need to add velocity with a negative number.

    Change Attribute self.Motion.Linear Velocity.Y to -170 ------ as an example value
    Constrain Attribute self.Position.X to 100*sin(self.Time*200)+340
    ---- again with values as examples only
