Question

I want to make a square (starting at point A) move along a straight line to point B. I’ve attached an image to show what I mean. The movement should:

Follow the line between A and B.
Be smooth, with control over the speed.

Could someone guide me on how to achieve this? A code example or steps would be greatly appreciated!

Path2D and PathFollow2D are great for this. You can make your Path2D of two points, add a PathFollow2D as a child and increase it’s progress over time.
