random move clip

Hi.

Here is a sample for you:

AS3 code:

// advanced layers off
// tested in Animate CC 2019 (version 19.1, build 349)
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.utils.setInterval;
import flash.utils.clearInterval;
var AppleClasses:Array = [Apple, Apple1, Apple2]; // linkage names from the Library
var totalApples:uint = 10; // total amount of apples that will be reused
var yRange:uint = 1000; // maximum y position above the stage everytime an apple is created or respawn
var minSpeedY:uint = 2;
var maxSpeedY:uint = 7;
var score:uint = 0;
var appleCreationDelay:uint = 1; // each apple will be create with this delay in seconds in the beginning until the total amount of apples set above is reached
var applesInterval:uint = 0;
var apples:Array;
function enterFrameHandler(e:Event):void
{
     for (var i:int = apples.length - 1; i >= 0; i--)
     {
          var apple:* = apples;
          apple.y += apple.speedY;
          if (apple.hitTestObject(girlMc)) // here we check if some apple hits the girl
          {
               score = Math.min(++score, uint.MAX_VALUE);
               setScore();
               randomValues(apple);
          }
          else if (apple.y > stage.stageHeight) // here we check if some apple reaches the bottom
          {
               score = Math.max(--score, 0);
               setScore();
               randomValues(apple);
          }
     }
     girlMc.x = mouseX; // move the girl on x axis according to the mouse cursor
     // limit the girl within the stage
     if (girlMc.x < 0)
          girlMc.x = 0;
     else if (girlMc.x > stage.stageWidth - girlMc.width)
          girlMc.x = stage.stageWidth - girlMc.width;
}
function createApple():void
{
     var apple:* = new AppleClasses[uint(Math.random() * AppleClasses.length)]();
     randomValues(apple);
     applesContainer.addChild(apple);
     apples.push(apple);
}
function setScore():void
{
     scoreText.text = "SCORE: " + score;
}
function randomValues(target:*):void
{
     target.x = uint(randomRange(0, stage.stageWidth - target.width));
     target.y = int(randomRange(-Math.random() * yRange, -target.height));
     target.speedY = uint(randomRange(minSpeedY, maxSpeedY));
}
function randomRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number
{
     return min + Math.random() * (max - min);
}
function start():void
{
     apples = [];
     createApple();
     applesInterval = setInterval(function()
     {
          if (apples.length <= totalApples)
               createApple();
          else
               clearInterval(applesInterval);
     }, appleCreationDelay * 1000);
     stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, enterFrameHandler);
}
start();

Please notice that if we are going to have to use an enterFrame event, then we don't need that mouseMove event anymore.

I hope this helps.
