Create rotated directions...

Hi LB,
I figured out how to switch anti-aliasing. I've tried both settings and I used the "set angle" method of rotating the object (it does work with "spaceship" movement). The edges are still pixelated and weird looking. Here is the mfa for reference. Thanks,
Brett

There are two things you can do to make it better:
Turn anti-aliasing on to make it smoother.
Use an alpha channel and make sure that in the transparent areas the color is the same as the outline of the visible areas.

I've attached a fixed MFA, but only the first frame of the stopped animation is fixed as an example:

Also, when launching an object, how do you make it work so that it launches in the correct direction?

You cannot, as launching objects uses the built-in 32 directions. You have to write your own "360 degree" movement for the bullets, which is not hard. There are literally hundreds of examples and tutorials across the various klik sites as a whole. ;)

Thanks LB,
That looks much better. Do you know how I can make the angle and direction of bullets work better? I'm having difficulty getting them both functional. Thanks,
Brett

Here is an example in the old forums: http://www.clickteam.com/epicenter/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=236771#Post2367 71
It should be on these forums too but I am not sure where to find it.

LB. That link is no longer valid.

It's working just fine here Marv, what do you mean by no longer valid?

Same here,... link is working.

I guess the DNS is slow to update as it does not work for me.. Odd though that the new CT forum updated immediately.
