Scaling and Moving Issue

As you can see, while scaling, the objects that are moving don't zoom. Now, I know how to make them zoom, however if I do that, they can't move due to an event that helps them zoom.

Go figure.

Now, I'm using an example (That is attached) that is extraordinarily useful! However the movement (X+1) is cancelled out if I set the object to Group.Zero which is required to zoom. Anyone have a solution?

Set its position relative (movement) to where it needs to be zoomed to?

Stupid as this may sound, I'm not sure what you mean... I have never needed to do a zoom before, but I'm making a game that requires it, so a little more detail would be appreciated.

By this, I meant you multiply the zoom factor by the offset and then add the offset after setting the position. Someting like this:
Set Object Pos to Group.0
Set Object X to Object X+Zoom*Offset
Set Object Y to Object Y+Zoom*Offset

There are much better ways but in the context of your example this is what I suggest.

I got it to work, halfway... I used this: X( "Active 3" )+CurrentScale( "Scale Values" )*X( "Scale Values" )+Y( "Scale Values" )+3 and it allowed for proper forward movement, but they zoom away as soon as I scale forward.

Why do you have Xs and Ys in the same expression?

[XStar]

Because I didn't make this example, nor do I fully understand it, so I tired a few different things, to keep everything on the frame, and not to have it speed off, X-Y worked (Thank you Algebra for think of that solution).

That's the only way I found it to work. Do you have a solution for the zoom speed moving blah blah blah issue?

[XStar]

What I need to do is to make sure that the X position increases faster than 1... But I don't know how to implement it. I have a solution, but no clue how to make it work.

Does anyone know how to do this? Limit the speed of the object to X+1, no faster than?
