Mouse cursor is something that the player controls and sees all the time, that's why it is so important to make it cool!

I have an object that is correctly moving toward the mouse cursor when the user holds the button down. I am doing it by simulating the 8-button control. When the object reaches the mouse cursor it passes it a little and then bounces back and takes some time to settle. How do I ease the object so that it lands on the cursor without passing it up?

You can use Lerp to achieve this.

Check out this example.

Adjust the "MovementSpeed" variable to adjust how fast the object is moving while following.

Thanks, — Would you mind uploading an r114 capx? I don't want to install r116 since I'm collaborating with others.
