Need Help!!

Hey all. So, what I am trying to do is that the user moves their finger along the touchscreen and the dot moves along a little bit behind so they can see. But, I want the dot to stretch out, kind of like in a line, and as speed increases, it gets thinner, and as you slow down, it returns to normal. Finally, I need the previous drawings to disappear as time passes. For example, if I am moving my finger, and I keep going, after maybe 2 or 3 seconds, the line gets shorter from the back, and if you are stopped, you'll eventually get back to your normal sized dot again. Thanks a lot for your help guys!

    "I'd Have to take a look"

    Everyone back off this thread, the Doctor is in and is ready to look at this guys project!

    God Matt, this is the forums where people ask for free help, don't just go around asking people for their projects willy nilly.

    nextgen, he is here asking for free help. Please do not email him trying to sell him your service.

    @ChessPawn what you would need to do is have 2 actors. the one that follows your mouse and then another one that is offset with vector to angel from that actor. Then another line actor that is constrained to the 2 points. And then have the distance from the 2 points depend on how fast the mouse is moving.

    Ill see if i can make a demo later

    cheers

    thanks tshirtbooth. I really think I'll need that demo because the only part I understood about that was make 2 actors. I guess it's because I'm only 13, and I started using GameSalad only like a week ago. Anyways, until you possibly make that demo, I'll see if I can figure it out. :P

    If I were to try to sell him a paid service, I would give him the link to my service. Whenever I ask someone to email me regarding project help, unless I mention I will charge them, that IS NOT my intentions :D

    Believe it or not ppl don't want to just send their project to another user unless absolutely necessary. They want to protect their ideas. So you need to try to help them over the forum and if you don't understand their question ask for more info or specific questions to the parts you don't understand. You cant just ask for their project file.

    NextGenEntertainment are you actually going to help me? Or is it a paid thing?
  • ChessPawnChessPawn Member Posts: 127
    Hey tshirtbooth, I see that you made a demo on how the offset works. That's one part down, and many more to go. Thanks to everybody who has helped so far. Now if only someone could explain the rest of the stuff.

    Sorry for bumping this guys. It's just that I don't understand how to go about doing this, and this is the whole beginning to my game, so I can't do anything without it. Hope you know what I'm saying! :P
