I'm making my first game for the iPhone and was wondering how to make my character follow my touch on the screen. Thanks so much!

    All right gamesaladpower, here's what you do: In your character's Actor Editor, create a rule: When: touch is pressed:
    Now, drag two Constrain Attribute Behaviors into the rule: Constrain Attribute: self.Position.X to Devices.Touch1.X
    and
    Constrain Attribute: self.Position.Y to Devices.Touch1.Y

    I think this'll do the trick.

    Good luck on your project.

    RKS: I think the difference is what platform you're making it for.

    Like RKS said, I dont think it will work quite the same way if you use touch position. Use Mouse Position X and Y. It should work a lot better.

    Just my experience. :-)
