What do you mean by "move A toward B"?

Is these two objects in a collection?

Take the coordinates for both objects AX,AY and BX,BY.
Now you have to points and you linearily interpolate all
the points on the line between AX,AY and BX,BY.
Use AX,AY as start point and BX,BY as the endpoint.
Use the interpolated points to move object A towards object B.

Cheers,

Manfred

I assume you would like to move an object towards another on screen.

Lets say object a is 100 units below object b and also 200 units right of object b. This means that for every unit a moves up it has to move 1 * (200 / 100) = 2 units to the left. This also means that for every single unit it moves to the left it has to move 1 * (100 / 200) = 0.5 units up.

Good luck!
