[squeakland] Can a Morph / (etoys player) follow a connector path ?

[Harness, Kathleen]

Hi Mike, 
I see Steve's note and it has some very good ideas. This attachment is a flight path project I started a few months ago. Here it is, not quite finished but you can see what is going on.
Regards,
Happy Landings

I'd like to do something similar to this game in Squeak / Etoys

http://www.gamenet.com/game/air-traffic-chief/

I.e. using a connector, having the motion of a morph follow that
connector, as the connector is moved while the morph is moving.

I see the demos in Etoys of   a "car following a road", but they seem
to be tracking a particular color, and continually turning left or
right (which is ya, basically what any path finding program is gonna
have to do internally, I guess).

Wondering if there is a "high level"  / class  / etoys .. method etc,
to track a connector

Mike
