Sniping

[jhonson]

I'm creating a game with sniping, so accuracy is a big issue, but I can't seem to get the bullet to travel where I want. When I make "gun" shoot object, I have it shoot at
(0,0) from crosshair, which is always at the X and Y positions of mouse. however, the bullet almost always hits above or below the target, and by a drastic amount. all of the hotspots and action points of the bullet, and crosshair are in the center, so thats not the problem. Any help would be appreciated.

The older movements in MMF only use 32 directions. Try using more up to date movements such as the Vector movement to move the object in more directions.

Make sure you use the Create Object action instead of Shoot. As far as i'm aware the Shoot command is useless.

The alternative way would be to move the objects position using Sin and Cos where five billion examples have been created across the forums.
