# Paths
#### Creating Paths
In Edit Mode, go to the *Paths* tab.
Type the name for your new path and click the "+" icon to start editing.
To create the path, click or drag along surfaces in the scene. Blue markers will appear at each checkpoint.
* To finalize, press ENTER or click the confirm button. To cancel, press ESC or click cancel.
Adjusting Paths
Once created, select your path from the dropdown menu to adjust its settings. A green line will indicate your path.
#### Moving Objects Along Paths
1. Under *Object to Move*, select the object from the dropdown and click "To Start" to place it at the start of the path.
2. Use *Preview* to see the object in motion.
3. Adjust the traversal time (in seconds) for the object to complete the path.
4. Use *Offset* to reposition the object if it clips through surfaces.
#### Moving Object at Experience Time
To control an object's movement along a path during experience time, use the Paths state action.
1. In the rules or scenario flow, add a *Paths* state action.
2. Use the *Run* action to start moving the object along the selected path or *Stop* to halt its movement.
3. Choose the specific path to manipulate from the dropdown menu.
This allows objects to dynamically start or stop moving on their paths based on in-experience conditions.
