Actor glued on another

HairyMuffinMan

Case: main actor(player) and mini actor

the main actor is controllabe by mouse, the mini actor isn't exactly controllable, it's simply "glued" on the main's head.
So it's like I want mini to follow main but staying at a determined x,y of main (in that case pretty close to main's x,y which makes it look glued)

How to do this??

Here is a video to get you started:

can't anyone explain me in text?

Guardian

Add two 'change attribute' behaviours to the mini actor.

Use the first to set the mini actors x position to the other actors x position plus the value you would like to offset it.

Use the second to set the mini actors y position to the other actors y position plus the value you would like to offset it.

Make sense?

^ it makes a lot of sense, but I can't see the main actor as selectable option in the change attribute, all I see is "Game, Devices, mini actor".
