Hi,

i have a piece of code that lets me walk around my 3dworld (works great).

I can point my gun using the mouse (360 degrees) and fire a bullet at what im pointing at (by pressing the control key).

My problem is that sometimes when for example im pointing my gun up or down it just shoots straight forward. (sometimes it works !!)
When i turn left or right and keep fireing sometimes the bullets get higher and higher ?


Can anyone spot my error in my code, as its starting to drive me crazy

well, i can't spot the error, but i think it has something to do with the anglex# variable, it somehow gets resetted so the bullet x angle is 0

Your functions are missing in the download(if you intended to include them). There seem to be lots of simple functions that only appear to do simple things - what else do they do? example this function "moveobjectrightpro(2,10)" surely this doesn`t just move object 2 right 10 units?
I haven`t spent too much time looking through the code but line 167 is a function "rotateobjectpro(bullet_obj,0,angley#-180,anglex#)" - is anglex# meant to be in the z slot or is that the x slot - also if the case is its in the wrong place then the x slot is set to 0. Might be best to post the functions. Have you considered writing a much smaller piece of code that just rotates the camera in an empty scene with bullets that fire in the camera direction? Do you really have to use visible bullets?
