So I'm making a pixel movement system, but that isn't relevant. I have code that when I enter an area it causes all the monsters in that area to move randomly.

My questions are: this caused by the infinite loops, (which it probably is sense none of the monsters on my screen start moving) and how can I call these guys to move without incurring an infinite loop. The basic code looks like this:
