Ah, Ive been trying this for a while now; I am trying to create an attraction field that follows my main ship. Setting the Fxfield is going all fine and dandy but getting it to the follow the ship is becoming a nightmare.

This is the first method that Im using but does not work,

1
2
3
4
5
6
7

 
 local function attractToShip(event)
                Particles.CreateFXField("F1", 0, ship.x, ship.y, 1.5, 50, false)
                GetFXField("F1").x = ship.x 
                GetFXField("F1").y = ship.y 
end
Runtime:addEventListener("enterFrame", attractToShip)

This is what I'm doing in a project I'm developing. I moved the ship, then called a function to move the field to the ship's position:

1 2 3 4 5 6

function moveField (ship)                 Particles.GetFXField("Field" .. ship.fieldIndex).x = ship.image.x         Particles.GetFXField("Field" .. ship.fieldIndex).y = ship.image.y         end

By god it worked! Thank you!
