Post Missle Launcher Help
i need help on a missle launcher type thing: it works fine except the missle fires in only one direction (the one i set it to) How do I make it fire in the direction that the gun is pointing?

Sprites don't work that way. See LOL missiles, the AAL ones, etc.

Well my missiles are currently offline due to the crash so yeah. But even so, they are based on BlipFlips (all credits to him) homing missiles with a little improvement.

And just to say, we cant make anything face the way we fire at. So no bullets, arrows, plasma charges and so on can face any direction we shoot at.

Idea of how to make make guns shoot working arrows and other rotating things.

Make a 1 shot to gib gun, that when shoots itself then gibs into the bullet sprite which shoots out and a new gun.

Gibs can rotate, right?

Would this work?


I posted this in another topic, but no-one noticed.

I realise that the clone would drop the gun every time, but you could just call that recoil.

Except the gun gib would fly off in a random direction, you'd be out of a gun, and it's a horrible idea.

I didn't know it would fly in another direction.
