Is there a way to make the items connect to the root from a further ditance and faster? and prohibit the root to surpass the items? Or make the root snap back if it surpasses them?

I want to prevent this from happening. And maybe tweak things a bit so that items connect and attach faster and therefor trigger onSelect() faster. Is there a way to do this?
