I want one character to drag another

[Grendel]

Hello again!

I'm going to try and NOT be confusing

I am working on a cutscene where the player is simply watching a scene

I want one of the NPCs to approach the other, and drag them away

I got the NPC to approach the other and all of that, but other than that I'm at a loss

Tell me if I'm confusing! I'll try to be clearer!

Also, I tried searching the forums for a question like this and didn't see one. I'm still new to this whole system and apologies if I've messed up.

Hello! You could simulate it without actually using sprites for the dragging action, but unless you have a sprite "on the floor" version of the character being dragged, it would look very weird.

I have done this before, you pretty much need to use the move route commands and have two that run at the same time.

The first move route should not have the "wait for completion" ticked. also, you should have the "fix direction" on for the character being dragged so it looks like they are dragging the characters.

another thing to keep in note is that they both need to have the same speed so one doesn't take off faster or the other bumping into the dragger. Also, for the character being dragged, it would best

to set him to *through* so the game doesn't freeze. The first move route is for the one being dragged.

The second move route is the one you want with the "wait for completion" to be checked and should be used for the dragger.

The point is, if you have multiple move route commands, If you set the last move route command to "wait for completion" Then the ones above it will execute at the same time.

Okay! Thank you both for the help! It worked!

I've got to work on making a dragging sprite, haha

The best thing to do is Report your first post (the 'Report' button is next to the Multiquote and Quote buttons bottom right of the post) and ask for the thread to be closed.  The mod for this forum might not see your post, but will see the Report.
