Help....Penquin glide around igloo

SCarroll · **Help....Penquin glide around igloo -** 12-15-2012, 11:35 AM

Newbie here.......Chapter 3 - I need my penguin to "glide" around an igloo. There is a glide method, but how do I make it go behind the igloo and then "reappear" on the other side? I have tried using dummy objects, but my penguin goes through the igloo. Is there a way to have an object basically "circle" a current object? Any help is appreciated.

To circle the igloo you could use a move forward method in a do together with a turn method. Something like this:

Do together
penguin turn right 1 revolution as seen by igloo
penguin move forward 10 meters

Had to change the forward to less meters, but it worked! THANKS!
