hi,

 Here's a working example using a mouse, you simply need to swap the mouse input with a touch input. that system only asks for a screen position really.

Had a look at the FSM (The first one you posted) and the example certainly works however my game is 2d.

How do I adjust it so that the object can only be moved in the X Y axis? Also when I touch my game object it just disappears :S

Thanks again Will

I still have the issue where on touch of the object it jumps a random number somewhere in the scene in all axis'.

1. I want it constrained to 0 in the Z axis.

2. I dont want it to jump in the either x or y axis... just stay were the object was created until touched and dragged

I've attached screen grabs

Thanks
