well. First i think maybe rephrasing your question because im not sure i even know what you mean. Second of all DB can handle a lot of objects so i doubt that having 20 objects and a few bullets will crash it.....well depends on how many bullets .

What do you mean by one object for all my bullets? you gonna model a bullet and load it into DB lots of times?

But no. It wont crash if you do that.

What's worked for me with bullets is making about 6 spheres and cycling through them. For example, my bullets will be object numbers 10 to 15. When the key or mouse is pressed to fire bullets, I do something like this:



I hope you understand what my code is doing. I don't have time to go into detail about how it works.

What about calling the bullet object (at the position of the gun tip) every time you click the mouse and the obj_bullet code doing the rest (movement in a straight line, speed. Collision with matrix/objects)--I do art better than code so im curious if thatll work, Im working on bullets for my gun(in DBC/gun made with Deled)
