How to make the AI have random movement?

And when the player reaches a certain distance, the AI chases the player.

Could you offer more information? You didn't even say what kind of game it is or what view...

Top-down view.

The monster will chase you when you get within 300 pixels.

This is what you asked for but I will try and improve it

Here the monster has a path and when it sees you it will chase you. Once you are out of it's sight it returns to its path.

The monster gets a little wonky when it returns to restart the path. Can any one improve this?

Could try Grid Movement with NPC setting and Wander turned on.

And I still like the solution I presented there.

Smacks his head. Gaaaaaaaaa

Your the man R0J0hound, I lost that and could not find it. Much more elegant solution.
