I have a character and a pickup item (axe) When the character picks up the item I have the axe animated sprite assigned to a keyboard button. So when the button is pressed it will play the axe swinging.

My control scheme is W(forward) S(reverse) A(rotate left) and D(rotate right) and SHIFT is my axe attack button for now.

He's the problem, my axe swing sprite won't face the direction that the player is facing while standing still androtating. BUT, if i'm moving forward AND rotating it works fine(faces the same direction as the player)

I need it to face the direction while rotating and not moving forward.

I must be missing something...it almost works...

Thanks!

If it works while moving forward, then you need to move some of your code or remove a check. Without seeing any of your code, I can't help you much.

Can you show some code. It's kind of hard to guess solutions without seeing how you're doing things.

based on what you have said you need the axe objects image_angle to equal the image angle of the player sprite.

just punch in image_angle=player_obj.image_angle

Make sure to replace player_obj with your player objects name
