Guizmus - Good point about timers, I will incorporate this idea in future.

So basically it was working but then you (every tick) reset them to 90 degrees ? <img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Thanks

luisgmolina - did you ever get this sorted ?

— - Could you post how you have done this please ?

have a look at Audacity

It normally turns out to be something simple/overlooked - 9 times out of 10 you can spot it as soon as you post in the "How do I" forum <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

How did we ever get anything into 16k never mind 1k ?

Colludium - Looks good to me - and for that reason "I'm out of here" <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

(I never even knew there was an "anglediff" or for that matter "Angularvelocity" - too much for my poor brain to take in...)

Did anyone even look at my original capx ? <img src="smileys/smiley19.gif" border="0" align="middle">

works !

None working function that works

Time for a coffee and my medications I think !

As we have not seen the capx I am going to make an assumption - and that assumption is that the bullets (when spawned) have zero speed. A bullet with zero speed can not have any angle of motion except 0. A bullet travelling at an angle of 45 degrees that is stopped (speed) and then restarted will travel at 0 degrees.

(example of bullet "changing direction" because of zero speed)

So if you are spawning your bullets with zero speed and then setting the angle of motion and then altering the speed then the bullets will travel at 0 degrees!

But like I said - all assumption (and yes I am waiting fot the "Silence of the lambs" quote <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle"> )

This spawn action overrides any immediately subsequent attempts to change these inherited attributes. Son any attempt to change an angle after a spawn will never work.

Are you sure this is right ?
