Hi. Is there a way to spawn characters to make them head straight and then make a turn?
Thanks.

    You can put Behaviors in your characters to control them after they have been spawned.

    Once they are spawned on screen, any Behaviors they have will take over and run.

    How would that be set up?
    In my spawn character, I just simply have a move behavior.
    I also have a spawner that spawns the character.

    I guess you could use a Timer to control it, move it one direction for X number of seconds and then change the direction with another Move Behavior. The specifics all depend on exactly what you want to accomplish.
