  Thanks for the reply. I don't actually want to control just the angle as it feels un-natural. The control I want is what you would have if you had one hand/finger under each end of the plate. You could lift the plate up vertically if you push both fingers together, and down if you pull down. But if you push one slightly up it would tilt that end of the plate. So it's a little more complicated than just rotating around an axis in the middle I think.

  Hello! This is my first post after playing with Construct 2 for a little bit. I'm really impressed how quickly I was able to get up and running and throw together quick demos. I've read a few tutorials but I can't quite seem to get my head around this problem and wondered if anyone had any ideas.

  The game I'm making has two thumbsticks which I want to use to control a horizontal 'plate'. I'll only really use vertical controls on both thumbsticks, where the goal is to balance something on the plate. The left thumbstick should control the left hand side of the plate and the right thumbstick controls the right.

  What I think I need is some way to semi-independently control each 'end' of the plate, but can't quite fathom how to do that. Suggestions welcome!

  Thanks!
