moving toward closer object

[whitetiger0990]

how can i have the X move towards the closer * and not the other?

Code:

__________
_*       _
_        _
_        _
_        _
_        _
_X       _
_        _
_*       _
__________

What I would do is add up the x-distance and y-distance of each * from the X. Then whichever ones' sum is smaller, have it go after.

Code:

if (x - x1)^2 + (y- y1)^2 < (x - x2)^2 + (y - y2)^2 then go_to_n1 else go_to_n2

That is, if you needed it in a single line code .
