That depends, is your main angle function out of the main program ?
Your jumping function to function so yes, set everything in a global so every function is updated to use that info.
So you touch the screen and a bullet follows that direction and its angle is set.
Quote: "gun.bullets[i].angley= Gun.Bullets [ i ].speed *GetRawTouchCurrentY(1)"
This does not check your fingers angle if you are needing this for a phone.
You need a lot of different checks for the bullet angle on the path it is following.
so if spritemovey=1 then setspriteangle so on and so forth.
Or just set your sprite angle to turn around as it follows a path .
I would add a helper sprite for the bullet to face at all times.
Keep that sprite in front of the bullet at all times.
EDIT
I searched and found this example, this will rotate a sprite at your fingers pos.
