Hey All!

Here is a quick demo showing how to make one actor hang and swing from another, movable actor:

This one isn't super optimized, just quickly testing an idea I had, but feel free to dig around in it and do anything you want with it!

    This is brilliant FMGs!

    Something i wanted in my last game but couldn't work out how to do.

    Great work!

    Did you put the + side to the - side? That always gets me when I try to get it working.

    But seriously. How do you get the blue thing just to go left and right and not up or down?

    Errrm? I loaded the game but I couldn't get the blue box to move left or right. Do you mean when putting this into my own project?

    So neat, Joe. Gotta find a use for it somewhere... (if that's OK).

    Sorry I was directing it to Joe.

    But the + to the - thing was a really lame battery joke.

    Does your post mean that you tried to duplicate Joe's demo/example in a fresh game file, PossessiveGaming? If so, maybe you missed some "Otherwise" stuff; just a thought...

    :-}

    And hey! Don'na be lonely! This Forum's the most buzzing I've ever been on...er, in....um, with.... ;-)

    @iDeveloperz: I'm just constraining the X position of the blue box to the mouse position. Feel free to dig through the code, I will explain it further if you are still stuck.

    Ah right I see thanks very much.

    I've learnt so much today.

    Thanks!

    But just wondering how can you make use of the replicate and some other rarely used behaviors?

    I'm not sure. I've never used Replicate...
