Waypoint
make these and then tell any object to move to them using the appropriate properties
Waypoint - just create these using the menu.
Using the PropetyEditor, change the names of say 3 waypoints to be "A", "B:,"C" etc. Set Position and Rotation as appropriate.
CurrentWaypointName - text
MovingToWaypoint - checkbox
NextWaypointNames - text
PauseHereForSeconds - number
There are options for time to reach the targeted position TimeToTranslate and time to reach target rotation TimeToRotate - these control how fast the go to that waypoint and how fast it will turn to the target orientation.
SmoothRotation - checkbox
SmoothVelocity - checkbox
TimeIntoWaypointMove - number
TimeToTranslate - number
TimeToRotate - number
The nextwaypoint property controls which waypoint the object will go to after it reaches the current waypoint. You can easily make a loop by specifying the next waypoint as being the starting waypoint etc.
On all objects there is a MovingToWaypoint flag and NextWaypoint field. Set those appropriately and it will move. They can also be controlled by wiring.
