howw to make a gravity field around a planet (circular object)

diegocs

i have a planet and objects inside this planet which is circular shaped, and i have this player that runs on top of the planet (which surface is curve) and when it jumps its supposed to go back to the ground by gravity (goes toward the center like in mario galaxy, how can i do that?

Accelerate down? Would that work?

You should download DBA Planet Hopper.

i want them to accelerate toward the center of the planet, if the player is in the right side, it is supposed to accelerate toward the center (which would be towards the left), if it is in the left side the opposite, and so on

Get the magnitude between the player and the planet.

Then when magnitude is < whatever
-accelerate towards planetX and planetY

i made the actor accelerate toward the planet (in direction to the planet's center) when it jumps and all with the magnitude attribute, but i don't know why the actor keeps on moving around the planet even after its touching ground

Tell it to only accelerate towards the planet when its not touching it, and add some drag to the player thats accerating. If needed also try changing its motion linear x and y to 0 when it collides with the planet.

fix it already, thanks anyway

Just test if it is colliding with an invisible feild and if so, use Accellerate Towards to accellerate it to the plannet.
