Scratch

This is pretty simple to do already. 

When green flag clicked
forever
    point towards {sprite name here}
    move {whatever} steps

You can modify that fairly easily to do whatever it is you need it to do. (For example, you might only have it repeat that a few times.)

Oh, I see. The movement needs to be independent of direction. You can pull that off with some trigonometry, but it could be tricky given Scratch's odd direction system.

Seeing that you rejected Harakou's suggestion, the only thing I can think of right now is the <glide(  )secs to x   personx )y   persony

Trig works fine in Scratch.  Since trig functions repeat at 180 degree intervals, the "odd direction system" doesn't cause an issue - though I do agree that it's ODD to not use the convention that every textbook uses.  I can only assume that there is good reason.

Here's a projectile motion project that uses a guide sprite to do "accurate" projectile motion without trig.

Move to {insert a sprite here}.

Ever heard of the <go to[  sprite  block?

Wouldn't it be Glide to? 
But yeah, your best bet would be a ghost sprite, and

Glide () seconds to (ghostspritename)

And have the ghost do
Forever
Glide (1) seconds to x position (Pick random (-238) to (240) y position pick random (175) to (-181)
Or from wherever you want, that's the whole screen.

Wait, I have a question about Block 3.  Did you mean for it to go *on* the edge of a sprite, or for it to *touch* the edge of a sprite?

actually glide glitches if the sprite tries to move as well.

grr.. you forgot the

tag so now my text goes all bold![/blocks]

Ever thought of putting it in yourself?
