    Hi buildboxers!

    So I am struggling to make the objects move in a diagonal line in buildbox 1.3. Does anyone have a clue how to adjust the velocity values of an object in a game with a game direction set to -26.5?

    Thanks in advance :)

    Can you share the SS in Debug mode?

    Hi Taimoor Javaid,
    Thanks for your answer. Sure. Here it is:

    The boxes that are separated have a velocity of -1 but I actually wanted them to move along the second line of boxes in an angle.

    Thanks TaimoorJavaid! It looks amazing :) But my question was in a game like that you sent can we have a second platform on the left of the ball that keeps moving backwards and that is aligned with the one where the ball is?

    Thank you again for being awesome :)

    I struggled with that on the game slide for a bit. I did end up figuring it out. I think my direction was 32.x. I tweaked and tweaked the blocks until I got it right, not at home to get exact numbers. But, I found that if 10 and 5 worked to go in the direction I wanted, then 5 and 2.5 would also work, but at a slower speed (ratio). So, once you do get it perfect (direction), just keep a ratio to control the speed. Hope that makes sense, ISO is tough. I'll post my actual numbers when I get home.

    Can i ask what is the purpose of the second platform? Anyway it is possible to have a second platform.
