* @param Path The <code>FlxPath</code> you want this object to follow.
* @param Speed How fast to travel along the path in pixels per second.
* @param Mode Optional, controls the behavior of the object following the path using the path behavior constants. Can use multiple flags at once, for example PATH_YOYO|PATH_HORIZONTAL_ONLY will make an object move back and forth along the X axis of the path only.
* @param AutoRotate Automatically point the object toward the next node. Assumes the graphic is pointing upward. Default behavior is false, or no automatic rotation.
