animation process?

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

Why is it that when I perform both pieces of code as shown below, only the first will execute, but if I comment out the first line, then the second half will execute properly? What can I do to fix this? I want it to applyForce and then after it stops moving for it to move the object back to an x,y coordinate.

t:applyForce( (t.x - event.x), (t.y - event.y), t.x, t.y )  
t.x = 143   
t.y = 253  
transition.to(t, {time=0,x=243,y=253} )

Thanks

With
t.x = 143
t.y = 253

You set the positioning, but with

transition.to(t, {time=0,x=243,y=253} )

It immediately transforms over 0 seconds, so you don’t see the changes happening, but they do.
Faster than you perceive them. [import]uid: 11024 topic_id: 3805 reply_id: 11571[/import]
