Try looking at a first project. https://playcanvas.com/editor/project/530412
use same script just add the script to the entity you want to move too

… No I mean that it moves on a linear path set without any input.

It seems this project is private or deleted.

Ok so from what i understand is that you want the Object to move in a path right? here is an example of what that path could look like in code:

Example.attribute.add('limitA', 'number', -1);
Example.attribute.add('limitB', 'number', 1);
Example.attribute.add('velocity', 'number', 1);
......
//in update function
            var currX = this.entity.getPosition().x;

            if (((currX <= this.limitA) && (this.velocity < 0)) ||
                ((currX >= this.limitB) && (this.velocity > 0))) {
                this.velocity = -this.velocity;
            }

            this.entity.translate(this.velocity * dt, 0, 0);
        }

This code makes the entity move back and forth of course this can be changed as the original code is here
Let me know if this helps…

Yes, the project was private. Try again.
