it stops randomly.
video its acting werid. I tested the code in another project(bit messy)

this one works
heres the code

When pasting code make sure to use three ticks to create a pre-formatted block. You can press the </> button or ctrl+e in the forum to create this like so
```
type or paste code here
```
Can you explain what is supposed to be happening in this video/script? And what is going wrong?
it sometimes thinks the distance is too big so it stops(to keep in range)>
I made a custom distance getting system to make sure is not a bug.
The code works in the recreated project totally fine(to check if its the code)
I don’t know why it randomly stops its earthier something to with getting wrong position
heres better version of code

You should use “_physics_process” instead of “_process” since you are moving physics-objects. Can you send whats being printed by this script?
I still don’t understand what’s supposed to be happening, what am I to pay attention to in the first video? What is happening with the red and white blocks in the second? Your script has a lot to do with the mouse, what role does the mouse play in this project?
As a writing exercise try to only use proper nouns, no more “it” and “it’s”, instead “Godot icon”, “blue paddle”, “the mouse”, “black and red squares”
