How to make my character disappear at one location/appear at another?

Hi all,

I am trying to figure out the best way for my hero to vanish at one location on the scene, and appear at another - like in this demo of Cut the rope when the candy vanishes down the hat and appears the other side? Any tips or video links welcome.

• thanks in advance

Here is one way:

When overlaps or collides with actor 
    Change attribute self.position.x To: (new_X)
    Change attribute self.position.y To: (new_Y)

When candy actor collides with actor [right hat] Change attribute self.Position.X to 100      Change attribute self.linear.velocity.Y to 500

(Assuming the left hat actor is at x=100)

You'd probably want a "mask" actor that is smaller than and slightly below the right hat and then use that for the collision rule so that the candy can actually drop inside of the hat rather than moving as soon as it touches the top edge of the hat.
