Script parameters

The parameters for Random Movement.

Speed	Speed allows you to set the speed of an object. The higher the value, the faster the object moves. However, keep in mind that the speed is affected by the mass of the object. Make sure that the speed of your object is proportional to its mass.
Chaos	Chaos affects how the object changes course when it is hit. The Chaos value should be set between 0.0 and 1.0. The higher it is, the more the object will change course.
Range	Range determines how far an object will go from their starting position before it goes back to that starting point. Range can be set at any value.
