Re: Follow Code: function Create(self) local curdist = 15; for actor in MovableMan.Actors do local avgx = actor.Pos.X - self.Pos.X; local avgy = actor.Pos.Y - self.Pos.Y; local dist = math.sqrt(avgx ^ 2 + avgy ^ 2); if dist < curdist then curdist = dist; self.parent = actor self.parent.Team = self.Team end end end |

Re: Follow Problem 1:
Code: self.parent.Team = self.Team Problem 2 is that curdist might be to low. |

Re: Follow Change curdist to at least 50. Change the line quoted by mail to
Code: self.Team = self.parent.Team |

Re: Follow How about just making the MOPixel home in on the parent actor.
Like a missile. Or, is that what you are doing? |

Re: Follow How about you just use my example?
One of the drawbacks though is that there can only be one. Though, that's easily fixable. Attachments:
