  Without seeing your capx I believe this to be the problem:

  Try picking only the spawned arrow

  You could do this with an arrow on created event or just use a subevent after the spawning.

  Right now you are picking all instances of the arrow, so they all will set course to mouse.x,mouse.y

  Frustration Gone. Thanks a ton for pointing that out.

  I have been using construct for a while and I am in the middle of creating my core gameplay for my project.

  Everything has worked out for me so far(after a ton of trial and error obviously), except my ranged attacks.

  I want the arrows to shoot at the "targeting" sprite which is placed at mouseX/Y upon clicking. I got this working but if i click again to shoot another arrow, the previous arrow(s) will change direction to the "targeting" sprite which has now moved to a different spot. It was sort of cool at first and maybe I will use that later once I know how I did it XP. but for now it is not what i need.

  In short my question is: How do I keep previously released bullets from changing direction when I click somewhere else to release another.

  Apologies for not uploading the project but something went wrong with that so i said screw it to trying again and decided maybe one of the construct wizzes would know what to do without the visual aid.
