[MrPopoy67]

in glob left pressed(or the guy to shoot not follow it): = ]

heres a shortcut

choose create moving(a bulb and an arrow)

and put the bullet and the speed you want and the direction copy this:

point_direction(self.x,self.y,­mouse_x,mouse_y)

[TheG2Z]

@TechnoPivotz

instance_creat <-- Add E!

[tman858]

i dont face were the mouse is, i just keep spining realy slowly

[TheBriana1995]

[bowsertheshredder]

[theNoahandAlexShow]

it all sorta works exept for when it fires, it doesn't move, it just stays there

[NuclearTestZone]

how did u make him move?

[Goregothe]

this is awesome! I love you for this. But, my guy is inverted; when i go left, he goes right. i am trying to fix it. When i do so, i will comment the code. Either way, it works, it pawns, and it helps me for future games. Thank you so much!

[MrRpgmakerkid]

[Joshuaemo8]

OKAY THANK YOU! LOL

IT WORKS!!

[levmailhere]

why cant it work i did it but the guy did't aim in the direction of the mouse(maybe its because i have a pc)

[beaster90]

How do I make it so I can use all arrow keys to move instead of just up arrow key=forward?

[wiifitinurlunchbox]

try this:

in step event put:

if keyboard_check(vk_right) && place_free(x+4,y){x+=4}

if keyboard_check(vk_left) && place_free(x-4,y){x-=4}

if keyboard_check(vk_up) && place_free(x,y-1){y-=4}

if keyboard_check(vk_down) && place_free(x,y+1){y+=4}

[Joshuaemo8]

[joeythegeek1942]

all i know is that it was used in "retarded batman", so search about that to find the song name.

[XDrakopowerX]

chaccaron maccaron or something

[muluukkunen]

It's b=instance_create(x,y,"name of your object for bullet") without quotes.

[4942523749425237]

@muluukkunen

thats because you ddint name your own object the same name of the creator of the video

[P4trickpOW3R]

Hehe nice job man. I had it so you could use WASD to move but wanted it to follow the cursor. This really helped! And I switched the up arrow key to W lol to make it easier

[RsSnowmanlynx]

ive got a platformer with mario like characters with a gun so how do i make it so that if my cursor is oinj the left side my character changes into the sprite that looks left and same for right?

[pivotmaster76]

when it says:

if keyboard_check(vk_up)speed=3

change the speed

[pivotmaster76]

i am wondering, can you have it so the player moves in more directions than just up?

[pivotmaster76]
