how do i make the sprite follow the mouse pointer?

zammer990 · 2012-07-09 11:39:57

forever
point towards [mouse pointer v]
move (10) steps

11g-tucker · 2012-07-09 11:41:25

thank you zammer

Or this

forever
go to [mouse pointer v]

zammer990 · 2012-07-09 14:13:53

It depends what you need, if you want it to leg behind the mouse pointer, use mine, if you want it to always go directly to where the mouse pointer is, use wes'

Additionally, if you wanted to be fancy, you could do something like this (sorry, not going to make a picture of the blocks XD):

"When Green Flag clicked"
"Forever"
"Point towards mouse-pointer"
"Move 'Distance to mouse-pointer * -1' steps"

.......................................................................................................................

In doing that, it will make the sprite go to the mouse pointer at different speeds; the farther away it is, the faster it will go...

Wouldn't work, "distance / 20" would though

You can also do something like this, where the object will move towards the mouse more quickly when it's further away:

when gf clicked
forever
point towards [mouse pointer v]
move ((distance to [mouse pointer v]) / (10)) steps
end

If you want the sprite to follow the mouse, use this, I find 10 to be close, but still smooth. Not taking as long to get to the mouse as 20:

when gf clicked
forever
    point towards [mouse-pointer v]
    move ((distance to [mouse-pointer v]) / (10)) steps
end

But if you want it to follow it so closely, it's almost the mouse itself, you could just use this

when gf clicked
forever
    go to [mouse-pointer v]
end

There's a wiki article about it here.

Easiest way.

when gf clicked
forever
 point towards [mouse-pointer v]
 move ((distance to [mouse-pointer v]) * (0.1)) steps
end

@11g-tucker, did one of these solutions do the trick?

Firedrake969 · 2012-07-15 18:10:57

Or [scratchblocks]when gf clicked
forever
if <mouse down?>
point towards [mouse-pointer v]
move (10) steps
else
point towards [mouse-pointer v]
move (5) steps
[scratchblocks]
Can someone fix this for me?

or:

when gf clicked
forever
glide (1) secs to x: (mouse x) y: (mouse y)

when green flag clicked
forever
point towards [mouse-pointer v]
if <(distance to [mouse-pointer v]) < [50]>
move (-10) steps
end
if <(distance to [mouse-pointer v]) > [70]>
move (10) steps
end
end

point towards [mouse-pointer v]//point towards mousepointer..
move (5) steps//at this speed, move to mousepointer

Or, just do this:

when gf clicked
forever
show
go to [mouse-pointer v] // the sprite will go to pointer without gliding
