Dragging and Dropping Actor/Objects in order to connect

Dude6230

Hi there all, I am new with Game Salad and thoroughly enjoying the experience.

I am creating a spelling drag and drop game, where the letters are placed above and the player would have to drag and drop letters in the slots below. So my questions are:

• How can I drag a letter(actor) to connect to a specific slot?
• How can I make a letter bounce back to its first position(signalling that the action is wrong)?

Thanks in advance

What I think you could do is for the bounce action, have the rule be set so that the right letter only changes the right box. For example:

This would be the rule on the box, so it would destroy itself and spawn the new actor simultaneously so it looked like it just changed itself.
Hope this helps a bit?

Cool. Many thanks for the response. What I did was make the actor bounce away from the box actor by making the box actor unmovable & with 0 bounciness but your idea is much better. I tried it and it worked

Here's my game thus far, what do you think of it? Many things to be added sound etc
