How do I jump towards a position?

Hi guys,

I'm developing a platform-based mobile game. I would like my player to jump towards a touch position. On touch on screen, the player should jump towards it with some strength but should not reach it.

Please help.

Thanks,

Maybe use lerp(object.position, touch.position, %) then vary the % from 0 to 95% over some time.

Hey gumshoe2029, I could use lerp but it slows down the movement at the end point. Instead of that I used Physics behavior to the object and set the event to "On touch start -> Apply physics force toward (Touch.X, Touch. Y)" but the movement doesn't look realistic. The game is climbing up branches so when I tap on particular position on the screen the player should jump towards that position. Also, jump-thru behavior is not working.

Any idea? Thanks.
