An enemy to follow me around the screen but not too fast

Question

Hi I'm building English teaching apps but through games.
I'd like a BUG enemy to follow me around but NOT TOO fast as I have little kids of 5 years old using this,
Would it be something like get the coordinates of my HERO character and send the BUG there.
I use POINT at the moment to send my HERO to where the mouse clicks.
Could I send the BUG there as well but using less x and y increments.
Would this be too much for the processor - too much going on with music playing as well?

Answer 1

again, don't remove it:
var speed:Number=.99;
public function onEnterFrame(event:Event):void {
var xDistance:Number=clickPoint.x-this.hero.x;
var yDistance:Number=clickPoint.y-this.hero.y;
if (Math.abs(xDistance)>10) {
var angle:Number=Math.atan2(yDistance,xDistance);
this.hero.x+=v*Math.cos(angle);
this.hero.y+=v*Math.sin(angle);
} else {
this.hero.gotoAndPlay("static");
enemy1.x = speed*enemy1.x+(1-speed)*hero.x;
enemy1.y = speed*enemy1.y+(1-speed)*hero.y;
if (clickPoint.x>=hero.x) {
this.hero.gotoAndPlay("right");
//trace(Math.abs(xDistance));
if (this.hero.x>=clickPoint.x) {
this.hero.gotoAndPlay("left");
//trace(Math.abs(xDistance));
