Shooting game problems

I have a game I'm making, but there's one major problem. I believe this has been posted before but I don't know where. How do I make a game where my sprite shoots stuff? Does it have to be part of the costume, or if I make it another sprite, how do I get it to appear where the shooting sprite is??????

Re: Shooting game problems

It depends on whether it's a first-person shooter (playing from the perspective of the hero), or third-person (you see and control the character). I'm pretty sure this project should help. To answer your questions, bullets are generally a separate sprite. You can send them to the character using "go to character", then "point towards mouse pointer", then

repeat until <touching edge?>
move 3 steps

hope this helps!
