Smooth move from a-b

Hi,

Couldnt find a great example so thought I would ask.

When a button is clicked, I want object A to move from position 1 (start point) to position 2 (its stop point), at a speed I can control. The problem I have is I can get it moving, but to get it to stop is a hell of a mission. I managed to do it on one object with bullet, but it is messy and interferes with other objects that need the same type of movement. I will also need to rotate another object through 90 degrees once object A reaches its stopping point (the 2 of them are pinned and I need it to rotate down, and then a flashing screen I have slowly appears at the end of object B when at 90 degress).

I have no problem getting things to be there, but to move there is so difficult I feel I must be missing something?

Thanks for any help.

is this what you mean?

Thanks zsangerous, I will try and figure that out. It surprises me though that there isn't a simple way to do this. Like the move forward action with speed (and obviously moving as opposed to being here then there).

Will give it a crack thanks mate
