How do I move the player sprite towards a spawned object

This is a follow up to an older question, I tried tweaking the value but it doesn't have the right pull effect.

I thought of trying under pathfinding, drawing a straight line between the player object and the spawned instance of the other object but I'm still at a lose of how the movement actually takes place.

Simple visual for the desired behavior

Use the bullet behavior, Set to 0. and in the Events when your ready to move the player set the bullet speed to the desired amount. You could also try Set angle to object, Sprite.X , Sprite.Y Change "Sprite" to the objects name that you want to move to.

Would this behavior still work if I was doing an auto runner style game? I think the preset movement of the player is messing with this suggestion.
