point to nearest. object

In learning C2 I'm trying to solve simple problems to build my understanding of it's concepts.

My current problem is what is the best way to have Object A find and point at the closest Object B among many.

So far I can solve it like this

But it seems like i'm missing a concept that would make this simpler. I just don't know enough to find it.

Thanks.

It works just fine, but you can simplify it a bit. Here's my version.

You only really need the D_shortest variable. Then, for each goal, if the current goal is nearer than the last one, look at that instead.

Perfect thank you. That is a fair amount simpler.
