@plierplierplier you might want to use an array:

  1. Go to Advanced
  2. Select Arrays.
  3. Create a number array
  4. Go to Images and take out an image (|_|) block.
  5. Drag it into the array. Repeat for each array selection.
  6. Put it into On Start
  7. Put a On game update every __ ms then and drag a set mySprite image to Get random value from myArray. Here is an example

Assemble the “sprite2” sprites into one big list, then you can use the “get random value from” to pick a random sprite2 from that array, get their x and y, and set sprite1 x and y to random sprite2’s x and y.
