Bullet Sprite
Hey 
I was wondering if there is anyway to make a bullet rotate to the direction of the mouse pointer.
I have a gun, which points towards the mouse pointer and the bullet points towards the mouse pointer, however it is just a horizontal bullet, so it looks a bit stupid if you are shooting at an angle.
So my question is, can you make it so the bullet rotates to the direction of the mouse?

Re: Bullet Sprite
Simple, just:
(Whatever triggers the bullet)
Point towards mouse
Move () steps etc...

Actually, you need it like this:
<point towards( mouse-pointer
<repeat until>
That way it only points when you fire it

Re: Bullet Sprite
The problem is that your first bullet sprite has the costume set to "left-right face only". Set it to "rotate" and your problem is cured. Look for the little buttons near the top of the center scripting area, up by the sprite name.
