Sprite Chasing Sprite

[MikeW]

I am writing a game where when a target is hit it drops a coin (creates new sprite) 

I want to have that sprite move towards the player 

 var targetAngle = this.game.math.angleBetween( coins.y, coins.x, car.body.y, car.body.x   );

        coins.rotation=targetAngle;
                    coins.body.thrust(400);

 

They always head straight down , can someone help me please. Having trouble finding a sprite chasing target example.

I believe there's a 'moveTo' or 'moveToward' method lying around somewhere, probably on the Phaser.Sprite class. I'm on my phone now so I can really search for it in the docs, but when you find it, you can probable call that in the update method for your sprite so it gets called every game loop

Probably at one point I had thrust almost working - and had it orbiting the final target. 

Thanks - if I have to I will use update and do the math myself should never be more then 3-4 in existance to managing the little stuff should not be that critical
