How to get a ball to follow the mouse

I am trying to make a basketball game. I am new to the software. I want to make the ball follow where the mouse goes when the user clicks on it, and then give them a point if they score a basket.

Re: How to get a ball to follow the mouse

Well, I would use variables. Alrighty:

Make 2 variables. Name one of them {mouse X} and the other {mouse Y}

Now put this script in:

<when green flag clicked>
<forever>
<if><mouse down?>
<set{ Mouse X  }to( <mouse x>
<set{ Mouse Y  }to( <mouse y>
<glide(  )secs to x sad  <{ Mouse X  }> )y sad  <{ Mouse Y  }>
<end>
<end>

I use the variables in case you move your mouse

Couldn't you just put the Mouse X and Mouse Y in the Glide Secs script instead?

Re: How to get a ball to follow the mouse

I just tried it out, you don't need variables because moving the mouse doesn't change where the glide finishes. Just stick MouseX and MouseY there.

Since it's forever setting the variables to Mouse X and Y, it doesn't make a difference.
