still having trouble getting an actor to stop!

Sparkyidr

so I know the move to behaviour is a bit flakey (at best)
so I decided to re-tool a camera move on my DONK app by using accelerate towards

so I have my camera move actor that has the camera tied to it.
I then have a behaviour that when I click an arrow onscreen it sets a "gamescreen" attribute to say, 1.
When gamescreen = 1 I have it accelerating towards a point to the left.
Then to make it stop, I have a stopper actor. When the cameramove actor overlaps/colides with the stopper, I am telling it to set my self.linear.x and self.linear.y both to 0, and set the x and y of the camera move actor to (140x240)

In theory this should make the cameramove actor stop at 140x240 right???? or have I missunderstood something?

Anyways... it doesn't. The actor does indeed flick to 140x24. but it kinda moves left and right in a bouncy kind of way as though it were attached by elastic to the 140x240 point.

meh....fed up with it now )

Hi!
Try the Move behavior with speed 0 in a rule.
As you can read in the how to: http://gamesalad.com/wiki/how_tos:know_which_movement_to_use

'This behavior will override ALL other linear movement related behaviors and even gravity as long as it is active.'

Do it like Uri Geller. When he was in the hungarian TV and spoke broken hungarian (yes, he is hungarian) then he said the word "mukodj" ("müködj" = "function" /as a command/) and it functioned :-p

Maybe it will work for you too :-p

LudwigHeijden's right, Move with speed to 0 works.
