i think that would work, but for angles convention its best to use 0 to 360

Yea, I don't use angles much, and scratch turns 360 into -180 or something.

If I use the 'forever if' scratch block, once it touches one of the five sprites it just points in a random direction forever without stopping,

That's not actually what the forever if block does. The name is slightly misleading: it is not

wait until <something happens>
forever
 do stuff

, it is actually equivalent to

forever
 if <something happens>
  do stuff
 end

There are many suggestions to remove this block because of exactly this kind of confusion. Did you actually try the forever if block?

By the way, the answer to the problem is

forever if <touching [whatever sprite you want v]?> // or forever then if as noted above
point in direction (pick random (0) to (360))

You could also do 180 to -180; it doesn't actually matter.
