Right now I have the system implemented using someone's example, I forgot who's. Anyway, it uses a value for speed and two values for accuracy. The only problem with this system is that the bullets will often pass through their targets. I need more precision but I am new to fastloops, still.
The bullet's movement is handled this way:
Always
-Add (Cos(Angle( "Pistol Bullet" ))*10)+Randomdir( "Pistol Bullet" ) to Xmove
-Add ((Sin(Angle( "Pistol Bullet" ))*(10*-1))+Randomdir2( "Pistol Bullet" )) to Ymove
-Set X(of bullet) to Xmove( "Pistol Bullet" )
-Set Y(of bullet) to Ymove( "Pistol Bullet" )
Heh, there's a few problems there:
1. Your cosines and sines look like they're being stored in integers. So, instead of 0.218*10.. it becomes 0*10. To avoid this probably, use Add (0.0 + Cos(angle("PistolBullet"))*10) + ...
2. Your object is moving by a few pixels every time, which is why they're passing through the target. Like Hagar said, that's what the Move Safely object helps with.
If you want to use a fastloop, just replace "always" with "loop: (loopname)", then run loopname as many time as you want to speed up.
