Move object to a random instance

Hi all,

I recently discovered construct. I'm trying to figure out how to make enemies spawn at a random instance of an object.

I've managed to do this through a variable that is randomly generated every x seconds. The enemy sprite teleports to one of the pink squares.

What I would to do now is have the enemy sprite avoid a square when the player is overlapping it.

I'm having a hard time coming up with a solution for this.

Is there perhaps a way to make a reference to an instance variable instead of the UID?

Here's the .capx file:

dropbox.com/s/qy18prn693ed5nd/Teleporting.capx

It's actually a bit easier to pick a random object to spawn from, you can just do something like this:

PickRandomSpawn.capx (r114)

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "have the enemy sprite avoid a square when the player is overlapping it", I assumed you meant the enemy shouldn't spawn where the player is overlapping, is that right?

That's indeed what I meant.

This is perfect, thanks for the help!
