hey i was just wodnering im making a program for just a simple game kinda like paratrooper but a bit different, so i have the cannon rotating where iw ant it to,


but for some reason my shooting code,


for some reason the bullet always shoots 90 degrees from the way it is facingso if the cannon is poiting straight up it will shoot straight left, anyone have any ideas, im thinking that my cannon picutre is sideways so i could rotate it and save the picture a different way so it would work? would that do the trick, thanks,

Take a look at an example I made a while ago. It may not be perfect, but its a good start:

The move sprite command will move a sprite Upwards (with a rotation of 0), meaning your bullet image should face "upwards". If your bullets are always coming out at 90 degrees to your ship, then simply add or subtract 90 to the bullet rotation. Simple as.

Hope this helps.


Its finally here!
