I would have ai functions on the object, and once your object gets within the proxy or hits the collison trigger it reverts back to a different object. Hard to explain lol

ill post an example.

Believe it or not, I ended up with a similar rig in a certain W-I-P game

Here is a slightly more complicated example I made a long time ago. The Boomerang always returns to the player after a period of time. Spacebar to fling:

It seems very… challenging and time consuming.
