Help with Vectors

Hi Guys,

I am making a game in OFW and I'm nearly there- I have a collision detection algorithm and also a points system and audio.

The game involves using gestures in Wekinator to control the left and right movements of a basket. The aim is to catch the different emoji's by moving.

However, now the vectors are playing up. I am trying to get them to offset randomly (and it was working before) but then I put the collision detection algorithm in and it stopped working. The images fall down, but they all fall down in the same pattern each frame (if that makes sense). Could someone please look at the code and tell me where I am going wrong? I need to finish this by tomorrow as I has to be in by Monday and I am working all week

Thanks
