[SOLVED] Movement of the object in another object

Hello everyone (and sorry for my english),

Imagine an object (let's call him a snake), which moves in any direction and at any angle. When the 'snake' find and eat a 'fruit', then this 'fruit' slowly moves from the head of the snake to his tail. So 'fruit' can move only inside the snake and never outside it.

The question is - how to do that? I just can't make it work as it should.

Any ideas guys?

Easiest method is image points/hotspots along the snake and LERP.

Is your snake just one large sprite, or made up of a few smaller sprites (eg: pieces for head, body, body, body, body, tail) ?

Snake is just one large sprite and he can grow bigger by eating fruits (by changing his width value). It's very simple snake animations so it's still looks good.

I've never been good at using lerp, so how can I slowly move fruit from one image point of the snake to another?

Okay, here's an example with just image points and a single snake object: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4714446/snake.cap

With such a great example now I know how to do it.

Thank you very much Jayjay!
