The Translate action includes the following parameters:

* **Object(s) to move: l**ist of objects you want to move.
* **Destination:** objects from the scene (any Transform) you want your object to move to.
* **Consider rotation:** makes the object match the destination’s orientation.
* **Parabola height \[m]:** an effect of parabola can be added to the movement,  you define the height of the parabola the object will reach while moving towards the new position.
* **Number of Flips:** number of flips you want your object to do when moving towards the new position. Usually flips are combined with a parabola effect.
* **Offset \[m]:** it defines the distance at which the object must remain from the target when moving.  Useful when you want an object to move towards another one but not bump into it.
* **Duration \[s]:** time in seconds for the moving transformation to happen.
