Probably a fairly simple question. I'm new to Alice and trying to figure out how to make something go in an arc.
select the "Turn" instruction, and use the "AsSeenBy" to do an arc around some object
cheers

Thanks a bunch, both of you.
I had resorted to having my object going at sharp angles, up and forward, then down and forward, very sloppy, and this should help.
