hello friends,

I am developing a game in which i wanted to have a shooting of the object in different direction. detail:

I wanted to shoot an object in the specific direction. as once i touch the object and move it should rotate in direction of movement and when i release the touch the object should move in the direction which is the final angle of rotation.

The ref is Bubble blaster game. in similar manner i wanted to release the object.here is the game ref game link: http://www.bubbleblaster.org/

hoping for your reply asap.

Try something like this

[code]
local vel = 100
local sin = math.sin
local cos = math.cos
local rad = math.rad

myObject:setLinearVelocity(sin(rad(event.x)) * vel, cos(rad(event.y)) * -vel)

I’m still not entirely clear as to what you are looking to achieve here… However.

Try this

--In your touch handler if event.phase == "ended" then transition.to(objectToTransition, {x = event.x, y = event.y}) end [import]uid: 84637 topic_id: 24415 reply_id: 99536[/import]
