I am making a carnival game involving a coin shooter and a coin. What I want to know is, How can I make the coin point at the mouse pointer at the same time as the coin shooter? Then I need it to stop when it leaves the coin shooter (How do I get the coin shooter to stop facing as well?) And also point again when it goes back into the shooter in the same game (not pressing the green flag). How can I get all of these to work?
Thanks,

Coin:

when gf clicked
forever
 if <touching [shooter v]?>
  point towards [mouse-pointer v]
 end
end

Shooter:

when gf clicked
forever
 if <touching [coin v]?>
  point towards [mouse-pointer v]
 end
end

Put this script on your coin sprite:

when gf clicked
forever
if <touching [shooter v] ?>
point towards [mouse-pointer v]
end
if <not <touching [shooter v] ?> >
repeat until <touching [target v] ?> //change to name of target sprite
move (10) steps //change this amount to the travel speed you want
end
go to [shooter v]
end
end

And then add this to your shooter sprite:

when gf clicked
forever
if <touching [coin v] ?>
point towards [mouse-pointer v]
end
if <not <touching [coin v] ?> >
change x by (0)
change y by (0)
end
end

Then the whole thing should work fine.
Make sure on the coin sprite that in the "repeat until touching target" block, change the word target to the name of your sprite that is the target you have to shoot at.
Post help once more if there are multiple targets, then I know exactly what to do.

Hope it works!
ENJOY!!!

In answer to SOSscratch's question, yes, I am shooting at multiple targets.
