Shooting with gravity

[KingBoo]

I'm new to Multimedia Fusion 2, and I am trying to make an object that my character can eat, then spit out. In order for it to spit, I am using the "shoot object command," and the object goes up, but never seems to come down. Please tell me what to do. I am very confused. I have tried setting the object as several types that include gravity, and cannot figure this out.

If you use the "Shoot Object" command you lose a lot of potential control. Shoot Object can only create and fling an object in one direction. Instead, try using the "Create Object" function, create it at the player and set a Movement variable on it to 1. Then create a separate event that when the movement variable is 1, it moves up. Then, when movement variable is 1, after 1 second, it moves down.

dsilvers, that wouldn't curve at all...

If the Bullet Widget, as Steven1980 suggested, doesn't work, try the pinball movement. I have had success with that.

Someone else asked for this sometime ago. I made an example of shooting with gravity that is located on nivrams website. Here is the link to that example.

This BulletWidget works great. It was just what I needed for my new game.

I use "Create Object", this object will have a pinball movement. Set it to go in the direction you would like (ie, the direction your character is facing).
