Hello there,

First of all, my sincere appologies for posting this in both forums "BP beginner" and this one. I thought that i may have put it into the wrong category and as a result didn't recieve any reply.
Please forgive me :)

my post went like this:

I was wondering if anyone could possibly show me how to create a chain link effect in a game. You see, i'm trying to program a train game, so i'd like the train to follow the track smoothly and also have the carriages link on to the main engine. How would i do this please?
Could anyone show me a simple example piece of code such as, Having simple text letters representing the train and carriages. Then allowing the user to control the train using the arrow keys.
Thankyou so much in advance for any help.
