How do I Do a object Rotation when touching screen?

Hello,

I am working on a rotational shooter and when I touch the screen(or mouse click on PC for testing) the ship turns to where I pointed, quickly, awkawrdly....I am hoping for an actual rotation to the spot I am touching/clicking vs just a quick turn.

Does that make sense?

I use

Touch - on any touch start - Player1 = Set angle toward (touchX.touchY)

Thanks,

Rich

Retrieve angle by compare positio between touch position and ship position:

Thanks for the file but I cannot open as you are on r240, I am only on r239. I went to the DL page and 239 is the highest available to the public?

You can download the latest beta version here:

Thanks - I was able to DL the Beta.

Alextro - I see how it works in your file, thanks. But it is not behaving the same way in mine. I click and it rotates some...but not all the way to the location of the onscreen clicking. I tried changing the last number from 0.1 ot 0.5 and it seems to move quicker to the spot but still not to the exact spot I am clicking.

I got it...I didn't edit your "Sprite" with "Player1"

It is rotating much better now. But not exactly what I want...I like the fluid motion it goes from clicking in different parts of the screen but it is too slow of a rotation. Increased 0.33 and that seems to be a good middle ground to get the rotation look with quick response time as well.

Thanks for your help!
