How t rotate a sprite using x,y from another object as pivot

I would like to rotate a sprite using the coordinates of another object, as shown in the image.

I found some tutorials that have a thematic appreciated,

https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/1064/s ... slider-bar

but I am not able to apply the concept, I need help to put the mathematical formula into events.

I would like sprite 1 to have the drag and drop behavior, only while it was not being dragged, sprite 2 would rotate using the coordinates of sprite 1 as the pivot point.

Variable RADIUS=200
Variable myAngle=0

On every tick
    Add 1 to myAngle 

    Sprite set X to (pivotSprite.X+RADIUS*cos(myAngle))
    Sprite set Y to (pivotSprite.Y+RADIUS*sin(myAngle))[/code:1tqooqj3]

Thanks for the help, I do not know if I did something wrong.

This is the result I'm getting. the sprite2 rotating around the pivot point (sprite1) and not rotating in the coordinates as the point of origin.

I can't see your images. Try uploading them to some other service - like imgur or postimages.org

Ok!

I'm going to try to upload to another site, I was using the google drive.

Do you mean to orbit another object?

I think the images link is working now!

Thank you for your help!

I will try using the bullet, I hope it does not give problems when changing the position of the pivot sprite using the drag and drop behavior.

Try adding this action:

Sprite2 set angle to myAngle

Here is a demo:

There's a nice formula for that. Here's as described in your first post.

You can use you mouse the do the rotation with a right click drag as well.

I first did that in this old example:

Are you using C2 or C3?

I ask because your images are of the C3 GUI, but you have posted in a C2 section, so all responses (.capx) have been for C2.

Let me know, and I will move thread, if needed.

I'm not sure if you solved it yet, but the easiest way to do this is to pin the objects. then rotate the pivot points.

Use the pin behaviour on the sprites you want to rotate around the pivot.

Here's a c3p example as it looks like you're using C3.
