# move(by:duration:)

Creates an action that moves a node relative to its current position.

## Declaration

```swift
class func move(by delta: CGVector, duration: TimeInterval) -> SKAction
```

## Parameters

- `delta`: A vector that describes the change to apply to the node’s position.
- `duration`: The duration of the animation.

## Return Value

Return Value A new action object.

## Discussion

Discussion When the action executes, the node’s position property animates from its current position to its new position. This action is reversible; the reverse is created as if the following code is executed:
