I want each weapon to be a seperate active object that always sets its position to where the character's hand is. The problem is, even when I use the event "always set postition to 0(x coordinate), 0(y coordinate) from active object 1," The weapon always lags behind the character whenever he moves. Is there anyway to solve this problem? n/a

Sorry if it's not well explained. <--intelligent, witty comment here-->

PLAYER FACES LEFT DIRECTION: Set position of gun to Player at whatever, set direction to LEFT PLAYER FACES RIGHT DIRECTION: Set position of gun to Player at whatever, set direction to RIGHT Thats it! n/a

(Dumb I.e) = *Player pressed "Left" - player.x = player.x - 1, weapon.x = weapon.x - 1 This makes there be no lag on the repositioning.
