Pulling rigidbodies to a specified area

Unity Engine
1

Hi everyone, I need some direction here since I am still new to Unity and not quite familiar with it just yet.

I am creating a simple game where the player will have to traverse a canyon by building a bridge. To build this bridge, I want to have them click on boxes on the opposite side of the canyon and bring them to a predetermined path. This predetermined path I think would make it easier to create the bridge. This is where I am not sure on things. I was thinking about a magnetic script that I found but I’m not sure if that will work. I need the boxes to snap together as they are pulled across so the player can walk across them. Can anyone point me in the right direction to accomplish something like this? Specifically the pulling and snapping to a path part.

Also, I want the boxes to start dropping into the canyon after they are pulled into position after a set amount of time. That part I can handle, the other part however I could use some guidance on.

Thanks guys

Set the bridge pieces to isKinematic and then write a simple code routine (use coroutines) to have them fly to their predetermined positions. You’ll of course need to know the positions/rotations ahead of time by building the bridge properly then storing that data, but it shouldn’t be tough.

Does the approach make sense? Where are you stuck and needing extra guidance?
