After plugging away for a while with studying vectors and gen I'm glad to say I'm finally getting the hang of the basics :)

What I'm interested in is how to make points attract to other certain points in space.

I'm clueless on how to approach this with jit.gen.

I've seen the black hole example but I'm truly not getting it. I don't need rotation around a black hole ;-)

So how can I make a few points (or a single point) in space that the shapes will be attracted to ? (simplest version please)

Kinda like how asteroids fly round planets with the slingshot effect.

I've posted the basic patch that Rob put on the forum (which was a great helper with learning the basics).

Can someone help a vector Noob out ?
Thanks in advance !

Needed this a while back. Just press the toggle and bang for a new position.
