  You can also pin the ribbon open using the up/down triangles icon next to the info icon on the far right hand side.

  Here is another slightly different method that uses physics (although that should be easy to change) and measures the time from the touch to the release to alter the speed of the throw.

  capx

  so you want

  "I want to be attracted then stick" and "I want you to attract and not stick..." ? We must be losing something in the translation to English.

  How about a drawing of what you want ?

  "attract when close but stop attracting when too close" ?

  version 2

  version 3

  I am not sure what you want - in post 4 you said "RamPackWobble I do not want them to stick, I want to be attracted then stick" - which is what I did?

  Anyway - let me know if version 2 or 3 are close (I now think it is 3...)

  Have a look at

  https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/253/how-to-make-a-platform-game/page-1#tuttop

  is contains quite a bit about animations

  I have tried everything and there is no way ... I'm going crazy.

  I bet you a pint you haven't and a second pint there is ? <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle">

  Does your part one attract as you want it to ?

  Does the physics distance joint stick them together when they collide ?

  If they do work (separately) as you want them to then all you have to do is combine them...

  separate events. your part one followed by my suggestion.

  try it - if it doesn't work post your capx.

  is this what you are after ?

  The only thing I can thin of is that you have somehow altered the platform behaviour "acceleration" - mine is set to 4000. Click on the player (pig) and see what yours is set to ?

  so you have worked out how to do the attracting ? (your part 1 ?)

  I have a way to "lock" them together once they touch....

  All you need to do is put the stick after your attract...

  You might (probably will) need to also turn off the attract once they are together or the force of the attract will start to push them around (I suggest a boolean along the line of

  if close enough and boolean "stuck together" is not set then apply force towards the other one

  collision ? apply distance joint and set boolean to true.

  Yann

  Thank you for that - I am pleased to have been wrong (again) because I rather liked using sprites as zones/spawners.

  Just to prove my stupidity ( in case you had any doubts ?) I was just making them with an alpha (or just giving them an opacity of zero) but leaving them visible (which I know does give the GPU a hit) rather than setting them to invisible!

  I swear I learn something new nearly every day about C2 (I just wish I remembered it all) - best �70 spent on a computer program ever!
