Scratch

Hi super2sumo,

There are several ways to make a sprite move towards the mouse pointer in Scratch.
One way to make it go to where the mouse was clicked is described here:

Another forum thread about having a sprite follow the mouse pointer is here:

This should get you started. If you need to know more, please ask.

Heybrian, that wouldn't work, because you can move th mouse, and then the sprite will just follow the pointer ntil touching it. What we need is to I denticate the place the mouse clicked. This script will work:

<when green flag clicked>
<forever if><mouse down?>
<wait until><<  <not> <mouse down?> >>
<set{ x location }to( <mouse x>
<set{ y location }to( <mouse y>
<glide( --- )secs to x   <{ x location }> )y   <{ y location }>

No, i think i was right because he said go there when CLICKED. it works perfectly to me.
forever if dosnt mean do forever, it means IF.

Edit: Use that same way for gliding, just say


              <glide(  )secs to x <mouse x> )y <mouse y>

I did it with two sprites.

The first sprite always moves towards the second sprite.  The second sprite goes to the mouse, when the mouse is clicked.
