mp_potential_step, I need tank-like behaviour

[sparklemotion]

Hi guys

I need my instance to stop and turn like a tracked vehicle when it sees an obstacle in front of it (or further away, as set by the command below). When just using the normal setup, the instance will just "glide" around the obstacle. Instead of this, I want the instance to stop, turn (image_angle) toward the new "route" and then move - doing this until it reaches it target.

Create event:

mp_potential_settings(50, 1, 1, true);

Step event:

mp_potential_step(target.x, target.y, 1, false)

Any advice would be appreciated!
