Hi, This is my first post, I am trying to play with draw nodes and draw api actionscript. What I am trying to make is a gas pump in flash where the user can drag the nozzle off the pump with an elastic like hose attached to it. I found this tutorial: [http://www.emanueleferonato.com/2007/07/07/creation-of-the-engine-behind-nodes-game-with-flash/](http://www.emanueleferonato.com/2007/07/07/creation-of-the-engine-behind-nodes-game-with-flash/) , which is exactly what I want except I want more of an elastic like feel to the hose… I also found this which has the elastic effect but it follows the mouse rather than drag and drop: [http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=210193](http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=210193) Any help would be greatly appreciated 😃 PS: I would also like the nozzle to be limited! ---

I also found this tutorial: [http://www.tutorialized.com/view/tutorial/Creation-of-a-game-like-String-Avoider/28241](http://www.tutorialized.com/view/tutorial/Creation-of-a-game-like-String-Avoider/28241) If I can figure out how to get the tail fixed at a certain x, y coordinate that would do the trick…
