Allow an object to move smoothly on the X and/or Y axis following a sine wave, or an ellipsis.

Example uses:

• Floating objects, such as powerups or coins
• Moveable platforms
• Enemy movement patterns

Properties:

• Horizontal distance
• Vertical distance
• Horizontal speed
• Vertical speed
• Center of movement, X position
• Center of movement, Y position

Tips:

• For circular or elliptical movement, the horizontal and vertical speed need to be the same
• For horizontal movement only, set vertical distance to 0
• For vertical movement only, set horizontal distance to 0
• For figure-8 movement, set horizontal speed to 1/2 of the vertical speed
