Is it possible to do this with gamesalad?

Trying to get one actor to stick to other rotating actor when colliding, but it seems to be impossible with Gamesalad. Is it?
Here's video that shows what I'm trying to achieve.

1: make 2 Global attributes

Planet X
Planet Y

2:
Make a Planet actor
Constrain game.Planet X to self position X
Constrain game.Planet Y to self position Y

3:
make your player actor
Constrain
self rotation to vectorToAngle( game.X - self.Position.X , game.Y - self.Position.Y )

then move or accelerate direction 0 relative to player

Also,

one way to make the planet rotate while still keeping it from moving when the player bumps into it (it can't rotate unless moveable is checked)

in the planet actor add 2 more real attributes

MY X
MY Y

Change attribute MY X to Self position X
Change attribute MY Y to Self position Y

Constrain self position X to MY X
Constrain self position Y to MY Y

I just did a little test of this, and it works pretty well, and if the player is set to accelerate and even moves with the rotation of the planet once it collides with it.
