If you have a center location and a radius you can do this:

Sprite set X to centerX + radius*cos(angle(centerX,centerY,mouse.x,mouse.y))

Sprite set Y to centerY + radius*sin(angle(centerX,centerY,mouse.x,mouse.y))

If you have a center (centerX, centerY) and scale factor you could do it like this:

x = (object.x - centerX)*scale + centerX

y = (object.y - centery)*scale + centerY

width = self.width*scale

height= self.height*scale

Sure,

It appears to swing because the sprite's origin point may not be in the exact center of the cog. You can adjust it in the image editor. Or it also may look like it's swinging because of the cog's shading.

Swinging?... Oh I see it. The sprite's hotspot may need a little adjusting.

For 1 you can zoom in to help or move objects to a locked layer.

For 2 select all the objects you want, right click and select "Wrap Selection".

Here's one way here using detector sprites:

For just a rectangle you can get away with having only 1 detector, I used 3 to handle crevices.

Game develop actually was made a little after construct classic, before c2. The interface does look similar, but I don't think it's a ripoff. Mainly since it's author said he wasn't aware about construct when he first was making it.

I've tried it a time or two, but it didn't really capture my interest. I didn't find the interface to be as intuitive as construct's, and it seemed that the event system requires you to be more verbose. It does have some interesting features though.

You won't really get a lot of people saying they use it asking on this forum. Ask on their forum and you'll get a different response.

Updated it with a small change and now it takes about a second less time. Now instead of loop{save->minimax->restore} it does save->loop{minimax->peek}->discard.

With algorithmic code like this you can implement it in JavaScript and get a 10x speed increase.
