  ...or even the further you push the joystick the faster you turn ...?

  try -

  -----------------------------------------------

  set up a global variable "AngleRequired" (number)

  every tick

  system - set AngleRequired to angle(0,0 gamepad.Axis(0,2), GamePad.Axis(0,3)

  sprite rotate 1 degrees toeards AngleRequired

  -----------------------------------------

  you will also need to set up a dead zone on your joystick or it will turn towards 0 degrees all the time when not pushed.

  Try changing where you have rotate angle to just set angle - this will set your sprite facing the direction you are pressing

  edit to add file:

  but found out I cant post links yet - sorry.

  So it was "angle" and not "angle of motion" that needed setting after all ? <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  Glad you got it sorted.

  Thinking of having a go at an asteroids game myself but two players ...

  Is it "angle of motion" or just the angle the asteroid is facing that should be set ?

  A quick "Hi" from not so sunny Wales.

  Downloaded the free version a few days ago after seeing it on steam and have just upgraded to the personal licence.

  Off to work through a few of the tutorials...
