Hey Guys!

Im trying to move an object with the mouse. What i want is to be able to click on the terrain and have my object move to where i clicked, like in diablo 2, or baldurs gate. if anyone could point me in the right direction, or show me some example code to get me started i would be greatful! Thanks!

Regards,

Is this for a 2d game, or a 3d game?

To select a character, you could write a function using object screen x() and object screen y(). Or there's the new pick object command in DBP. If you're moving your character across a flat ground, you could take the sub routine from my rts demo. (code snippet section) If its a randomized matrix, or otherwise uneven ground, there's a snippet from dmitry on that. I've implemented his code into my rts now, but i haven't posted the update yet.
