How do I flick an object in a direction?

Hi,

shouldn't this be working?

It seems to be setting an incorrect angle though.

Can anyone see the mistake? I'm half guessing that the event/tick sequence is working differently than I understood it, but I'm kinda clueless.

A tap gesture is a quick tap, so I guess if you change that to on object touched it should work better..

or on any touch start - touch is touching object..

As LittleStain said, a tap won't work with a flick.

I used the drag and drop behavior as a base in my template.

yep, that sorted it. threw in the 'Is touching object' and voila.

thanks guys

you're welcome
