Making Mobile Mobs: Question

When I try to make a mobile mob putting pictures in the North South West and East position, how do I make it so they're not moving constantly and only when made to turn in that direction? When I try to do it, they're always marching in place. I'm guessing it's because I'm using two of the three spots open. Do I use one for stationary and the other two for stepping? How does that work?

Do you mean different icon states for when the mob is moving and for when it's not moving?

If so, make two icon states with the same name, but make one of them a "movement" state (right-click on it, choose "Edit State" and tick the "Movement State" box). When the mob's icon state is set to that name, it will automatically switch between the moving/nonmoving states as needed.
