Hey guys, what would be the best way to go about using a boomerang style weapon that slows at the peak of its x movement, then slowly goes back to the enemy and gains speed, basically the same movement as the first one but in reverse? I had a little bit of luck with the bouncing ball movement adding +2 to the speed every 00 02 secs but how would i make it come back to the enemy after it reaches say 60 pixels or more away from the enemy?

Another one bites the dust, got this figured out. It was easy just using alterable values. The way i did it gave the boomerang effect a gradual slow down then a gradual speed up when returning, looking more realistic. If anyone else needs help with this, let me know and i'll upload an example file for you guys

You could make a Time value that you constantly add to when you throw it, and then set the X Position to
Player X Position + Max Distance * sin( Time )
When Time = 180, the boomerang has returned to the player. This will give a physically realistic interpretation nearing how boomerangs operate in real life (while still constricted to one axis)
