Controlling an actor with touch screen

Olivier Randier

Simple question : how do I set an actor to follow fingertip moves (on touch screen, of course)? And how to change actor orientation following fingertip movement orientation?

You can use the 'constrain attribute'. When touch is pressed, constrain self position x to touch x---same for y. I suggest you go to gshelper.com. There are a few video tutorials that will walk you through this. :-*

OK, I find solutions here, and it works, except that I would like to draw a continuous line instead of spawning multiple dot actors. Any idea?
