Throw an object that returns to the thrower like a boomerang.

Authors and contributors to this experimental extension: Entropy, VictrisGames.

Throw an object that returns to the thrower after a length of time, or when an action is used to return it.

How to throw a boomerang:

  • Create a bomerang object that has this behavior
  • Use one of the "Throw boomerang..." actions
  • Run the "Track location of thrower" action every frame so the boomerang returns correctly

Tips:

  • If you want the boomerang to bounce off objects, check for collisions and then use the action "Send boomerang back to thrower"
