How do I smoothly increase sprite size to original size

I have the sprite starting at 0, 0 and would like to smoothly increase its size to 1.

Right now i have:

system > start of layout: sprite > set size to (0, 0)

logo > start fade

logo > enable effect "warp radial"

system > every tick: logo > set size to (self.width + 16 * 0.5, selfheight + 9 * 0.5)

I've tried many different things but the sprite either... doesn't stop growing or it snaps to the 1,1 size, which looks bad.

So how can i smoothly grow the sprite and have it stop at its original size?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

either you have to test if it has reached 100% in the every tick event (before you change the size)

system > every tick: logo > set size to (self.width + 16 * 0.5, selfheight + 9 * 0.5)

would become:

system > every tick: logo.width less than (target width) > logo: set size to (self.width + 16 * 0.5, selfheight + 9 * 0.5)

or you could use LiteTween: https://www.scirra.com/forum/behavior-litetween_t70700

the nice thing about litetween is that it has many different ease in and out effects. you can also tween different properties at the same time: size, position, opacity, etc...

You can also use LERP.

set width

--- lerp(object.width,object.desiredwidth,1-0.3^dt)

set height

--- lerp(object.height,object.desiredheight,1-0.3^dt)

(Change the 0.3 for different speeds. The lower the number when using ^dt means the faster it will change. This number must be greater than 0 but lower than 1)
