I've had some troubles with a space project and stripped it down to this:



You control the top box, and the bottom box should come to you, however, in some places the bottom box goes off to nowhereland. I stumped.

Controls:
Mouselook: turn pitch
Arrow keys: move/roll

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

The main problem is this command needs deleting/remming out as it used to break point object and probably still does:

`set object rotation ZYX 51

I would also make the object 51 point towards object 10 and move after object 10 is updated. Though this will only put a 1 loop delay between them.

Udated code:



It seems to work, but I'm going to do more testing. Thanks for the pointer!! In DBC, if I didn't but the set object rotation ZYX 51 code in, it would "flop like a dead fish." Anyway... Thanks.
