360 degree shooting

[willy]

Without the Angle calculator I can’t make 360 shooting. Is it possible someone can make an example with the Advanced direction object that uses 360 degree shooting and bullets faster than the standard ‘100’ speed.

I would really appreciate it, thx!

i can tell you right here how to do that:

Object Bullet
Value ID
Value Angle
Value Speed
Value Start X
Value Start Y
Value steps

Create bullet, set angle, set speed, set start Y and set start Y.

* Always
Spread value 0 in bullet value ID

* always
start loop "bullets" number of Bullets times

* On "bullets"
* Bullet Value ID equals loopindex("bullets")
start loop "bulletMove" bullet value speed times

* on "bulletMove"
* if Bullet Value ID equals loopindex("bullets")
Add 1 to steps
set bullet x Pos to bullet value Start X + cos(bullet vaule angle) * steps
set bullet y Pos to bullet value Start Y - sin(bullet vaule angle) * steps

* on "bulletMove"
* Bullet Value ID equals loopindex("bullets")
* if bullet overlaps a backdrop
create explosion at bullet
Destroy bullet
stop loop "bulletMove"


If you need more performance in this, you can make the steps higher by instead adding 2 or 3 or 4 to steps and instead lowering the speed.

I repeat it but I've made a tutorial about it without any extension.

It's in French but it's easy to understand. <img src="/center/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

thx guys, I'll try to make that exmaple.

the VirtuaCLIK example is good, but the bullet moves too slow.

"Create bullet, set angle, set speed, set start Y and set start Y."

What do you mean by that line? Create a bullet is ok, but whats do you mean by "set angle, set speed, set start Y and set start Y."?

This is also way to advanced for me:
"set bullet x Pos to bullet value Start X + cos(bullet vaule angle) * steps
set bullet y Pos to bullet value Start Y - sin(bullet vaule angle) * steps"
