I can't figure out my simple flying bug game:

  1. When the bug follows my finger (touch) I want it to rotate in the direction moving.
  2. When I touch other actors such as the flower (animate) I do not want the bug to move anymore.

Can anyone help? Thanks

    In maths 0° is set at the '3 o'clock' position on a clock, that is to say on a compass 0° is due East.

    Your problem is that you are importing a character into GameSalad that is facing upwards, which is 90° in maths, therefore all your calculations need to take this into account.

    If you want life it be easy in GameSalad (and in maths) then you should orient your moving characters so they face 0°.
