How To Create Enemies Off Screen Have To Have Them Move To A Particular Point On Screen

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

Hey guys i thought i already placed this question but i cant seem to find it, anywho… I am creating this tank game where in the center is the fort and tanks of different colours will spawn off screen ( at random ) from any direction. now my animation team has the animation i just cant make it move to the center of the screen.
so basically i need a sample code of how to make it  1. randomly appear offscreen and come on screen to the fort from any direction
2. tank colours change randomly from a preset ( like 8 basic colours )

 

NB:  i think i know how to make it touch responsive so that when you touch the screen the tank blows up but any addition help will be greatly appreciated

My Game Development Crash Course has objects appear offscreen and head for the center to blow up the enemy there. And that Crash Course is free, so you could sign up for it and grab the source code without even going through any of the lessons (although I think the lessons would give you some info you could use right away).

Like I said, sign up is free and the example game is doing what you want (although space ships instead of tanks).
