if there were all to go in the same direction and were equally spaced, you could concievably do something with costumes to make it look like more than one bullet, but otherwise, no - every independent object on screen will need its own sprite

Make one sprite with a costume with multiple bullets.  Or just make many sprites.

See Restricted Airspacev1.0 or Restricted Airspacev2.0 for examples.  (oooo's stuff.)

[blocks]    <when green flag clicked>
               <forever>
              <show>
             <glide(  )secs to x    )y   )
              <hide>
               <go to[ gun ]>
               <end>
              [/blocks]

Insteda of glide, I usually use:

Point in direction (main sprite direction)
Repeat until touching edge
>>Move 10
>>Wait 0.05

look at my second one the project with the Ak47 its awsome:)

it may actually be possible to do using stamping so that one sprite acts like many.  this would not be ideal though as it is likely to be more stuttery and fairly complex.

How could you make something like a machine gun shoot multiple bullets one after another with only using 1 sprite for the bullet. Is there a way? I dont care if its complicated or not just tell me if its possible. Thanks

just make alought of costumes. it is simple=)

You can do it with any bullets. first, go to the sprite in his shooting position (without his bullets) and hit copy. now edit the sprite, and draw or import the sprite of you bullet(s) in the picture.

On the Stage:

When flag clicked:
Set bulletCount to 0
Broadcast countBullets and wait
//start game with next broadcast
Broadcast startGame

//space to shoot
When I receive startGame
set bulletCall# to 1
Forever
  If (key space pressed?) and (bulletsAvaliable>0)
    change bulletCall# by 1
    if bulletCall#>countBullets
      bulletCall#=1
    endIf
    broadcast callBullet
  endIf

   
             
EndForever

Create a bullet sprite with the following code, then copy as many times as you'd like:

When I receive countBullets
change countBullets by 1
set myBullet# to countBullets
//myBullet# is a local variable, each bullet has its own

When I receive callBullet
if bulletCall#=myBullet#
change bulletsAvaliable by -1
//Do the shooting script here
change bulletsAvalaible by 1
endIf

Tell me if this works, since I'm not quite sure. Or look at this project.

This would be useful in a multiplayer game. Or actually any shooter game.

Im not sure which blocks to use for the "repeat until touching edge"
can you please use the blocks to show me

<repeat until><touching[ edge

This is easy!! =~D just go to http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Marine43753/657539(this)
project by me,(p.s. I know that the dynamics ar'nt there yet but the shootings fine.)
Download it and use that script for the bullets. And I know the shootings * online
but when you download it it works fine.
