  Thanks for all the responses! I used this solution and it works like a dream. I went one step further and stored the angle as an instance variable too for easy access.

  To calculate an objects angle of motion, create 2 instance variables for the object called 'PreviousX' and PreviousY'

  at the end of your events add

  Every Tick -> Object: Set PreviousX to X

                Object: Set PreviousY to Y

  Then to calculate the objects actual angle of motion use Angle(Object.PreviousX,Object.PreviousY,Object.X,Object.Y)

  I've got a bit if a conundrum.

  I would like objects when they collide with bullet behaviour to bounce off each other. I am using there current Angle of Motion plus 180 degrees.

  This works well until I introduce solid objects, once they bounce then I am think that the angle of motion is no longer the angle they are actually going at.

  Am I correct? If so is their anyway of accessing there actual angle of motion?

  Thanks
