### Common Uses

* Elevators (with [**Toggle Behaviour**](/en/creator/game-maker/docs/components/status/toggle.md) component)
* Complex platform gameplay
* Complex object pathing (e.g., [**tower defense**](/en/creator/game-maker/creative-guides/experience-guide/tower-defense.md) enemy moves) using [**parent/child relationships**](/en/creator/game-maker/docs/build-menus/side-bar/hierarchy.md#parent-objects-control-child-objects-properties)

***

## How it Works

### Trigger: No messages in

### Action: Movement (10 waypoints)

#### Destinations - Add up to 9 additional waypoints to the original object location

#### Platform Mode: Linear or circular

#### Loop

* False - stop at the last destination and return in reverse
* True - continue to the first location

#### Look at destination - rotate the object's front to face the direction of movement

{% hint style="info" %}
Turn this behaviour on/off with [**Toggle**](/en/creator/game-maker/docs/components/status/toggle.md) component to control movement.
{% endhint %}

### Out: <img src="/files/JMtrfm5HbYsCN4qAgNGB" alt="" data-size="line"> Unique message per destination sent
