I would like to discuss my Idea

Mechanical

Right now I have a mathematical problem.

I have PlayerSprite and Cursor Sprite
I want to launch a 3rd Bullet Sprite
At PlayerSprite location and I want it to fly towards the Cursor Sprite.

For that I need a formula to rotate the Sprite towards the Cursor and I don't know how to achieve that.

To get the angle to a specific point, you will need to use atan2(). Take a look at Wikipedia:

Whoa that reminds me of my school days.

I need to get better in math, Im just seeing Greek symbols xD

There is an example here that uses it to set a sprites rotation angle:

I had some time over on my lunch break, so I cooked up a small demo for you.

It is still in "pending", but you should hopefully be able to download it shortly.

I will look into that this evening, I'm at work atm

vinicity

Do that! (It seems to be live now as well!)

Atan2() is pretty sweet. I used it for a twin stick shooter once.

Twin stick shooter sounds pretty much like the game I'm coding :D
I'm getting CS2D vibes

I just love Fuze. From getting an idea in my head (a rotating tank and a crosshair) to having a working demo, and then sharing it with others took like 20-25 minutes. That is pretty amazing and shows how easy Fuze is to work with once you get used to all its little idiosyncrasies!

@vinicity Can we quote you on that?

vinicity

Sure, go right ahead.
