Using mouse to move object

I am trying to create a strategy game using mouse to move the character(in third person). When I will click on place the character will go there. how to do that?
(sorry about my english)

Something like this should work ....

Initialise ...

plane = createplane() : entitypickmode plane, 2
target = createsphere() : entitycolor target, 255,0,0
player = createsphere()

In the main loop ....

Picked = camerapick( mousex(), mousey() )
if Picked = plane
   positionentity target, pickedx(), pickedy(), pickedz()
endif

if entitydistance( player, target ) > 10
   turnentity player, 0, deltayaw( player, target )*.1, 0
   moveentity player, 0, 0, .5
endif

The target is a sphere to show you where you're moving to .. normally a pivot would suffice here.

Hope this helps.

Dont know if it helped Amitjf or not, but it certainly helped me, Thanks Stevie

Your welcome ... there's alot to be said for common curtesy ;)

I believe the word is spelled "courtesy". :)

Well, that wasn't very courteous...

lol- i believe he likes good manners, not spelling, thats where spell check comes in for me

Waht, bnieg hfpulel is desicruotous? Sllpieng maktsies are wnorg to hlep poelpe to cecorrt? Srory, did not maen to be drouiscoutes.

(recent discovery: as long as the first and last letters of a word are correct, you can mix up the internal letters of a word, and people can still read them, as the human brain unscrambles them and knows what's being written.)

But seriously, I wasn't out to diss anybody, and am sorry if it was taken that way. Apologies to all.

Well, your mostly correct. I have no idea what 25% of those words say ;)

oh no, somethings taking over Sir Gak's mind and making him discourteous*, no spare him, ah nno ti's getttnig mie alos, hepl i don wanat be incosniderit†.


*indicates words I used spell check for

†indicates words I used spell check for, but then decided to screw it and leave it the way it is.
