This pack contains 10 types of bullet effects, with different shapes and colors.
  • Problem Description

    _ With Bullet Behavior there's an offset to upward/downward angle movements (90º / -90º).

    Attach a Capx

    _ https://www.dropbox.com/s/fluanpo50qwek ... .capx?dl=0

    Description of Capx

    _Simple Sprite with bullet behavior over a background.

    Steps to Reproduce Bug

    • Just press up a couple of times. Change the angle to see how the upwards and downwards angles offsets the sprite.

    Observed Result

    _Press Up and you should see the sprite moving upward with varied offset to the right. But should go stright up.

    Happens with 90º and -90º (also with 270º). But works fine with any horizontal degree like 180º , 360º and 0º.

    Expected Result

    _Angles like 90º, -90º and 270º should move a sprite in stright vertical lines without offsets. (With bullet behavior movements)

  • You have to set the bullet speed before setting the angle of motion. If you set the angle of motion when the bullet speed is 0 it has no effect (angle stays at 0) .

  • Wow! I always set first the angle and then the speed. Never played with direct angles like now so i probably never saw this kind of offset behavior before. I get carried away with a recent bugfix about pixel rounding giving bad offsets by 1 pixel and.. it was my stupidity all along..

    Thanks ramones ! I tested it and worked fine now. I wonder why i didn't tried this simple change myself grrr.

    By the way, if you set "angle(sprite1.x,sprite1.y,Sprite2.x,Sprite2.y)" as the angle and then set the speed it seems to work fine that way. I better correct those errors anyway before they explode on me.

    Thanks again! This "bug" is solved.
