  Well limiting rotation using my method is simply a check to see if it is between angles. That way you can set it to rotate to and from any angle.

  Here is another option. Use the Q & E keys to move the aim.

  Your arm sprite needs to be horitontal in the editior. If you rotate it 90 degrees so the hand is on the right It will work. In actual fact the arm image needs editing externaly so its horizontal not at an angle. Also you need to alter your aim calculations. I am not sure from what i see exactly where the red aim point is supposed to be.

  It seems a little overcomplicated for what you are trying to achieve.

  I am guessing your arm is in the wrong orientation in the editor. If you edit your arm sprite it should look like the shoulder is at the left and the hand at the right. The place the image point at the shoulder. Its should work just fine then.

  R0J0hound suggested using the clipboard in a different thread. Maybe you could try that depending what data you need to share.

  Edit: I just noticed this is an older version of your other thread. I guess you have it sorted now.

  Nodewebkit seems to work great as an exporter without any noticeable problems. Or am I wrong?

  With ios8 & Android L, phonegap should solve all export problems on these 2 platforms.

  As far as I know the WiiU export works quite well too

  I dont think this is relevant in as much as they are still 3rd party options which can and do fail and which Scirra have no control over.

  As i have stated before, i like C2 but i have also been seriously thinking about a move to Unity.

  Have you searched the forums? I am sure R0J0hound has made some posts about this.

  Its a good idea. Whether it will ever get implemented is another matter. A zoom in to the mouse pointer has been asked for ages and still no sign of that.

  You need to use the pick command to tell it which one to destroy, or set an instance variable containing the UID of the object. You can then select by UID the one to destroy.
