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.
