I want to make a platforming game where two players are connected by a rope ex. pico park. I just need help with the rope mechanic and im stuck. ---

do you want a line to be shown between the two players? because if you do you can use the “On Z-index” block from the Sprite Utils extension and then put a “Draw Line” block with the two coordinates options being the two players you want to connect. ---

yea but if the line is “x” length it provides a force tension in the rope/line ---

For this problem, you should still set the line I mentioned and use the distance block in the Sprite-Utils extension and when your sprites are a certain distance apart the code changes the X’s until they are the perfect distance or less apart. ---
