Shooting from NOT the offset

Zelta

I watched the tutorials of @Stefan_GameDev for learn about isometric and shooting etc

Now i'm trying to move the point of origin of my player's shots from the feet (0,0) to the head (0, -70). The shots are well aimed, but always at 70 pixels from the cursor. I have tried several ways but I can't get it, how can I correct it?

For the rotation you need to get the angle by taking the position of the TurnAxis towards the global mouse position spell1_instance.rotation= get_node("TurnAxis").get_global_position().get_angle_to(get_global_mouse_position())

Hi Stefan, thanks for answer, i love your tutorials!

im getting vector2 error:

Invalid call. Nonexistent function 'get_angle_to' in base 'Vector2'

Stefan_GameDev

get_node("TurnAxis/Position2D").get_global_position().direction_to(get_global_mouse_position())

Sorry, I replied out the top of my head. direction_to should work

Zelta

i cant make it works, im stuck. tried every ways, directions, angles, positions, but still not working and i dont know what im doing wrong

maybe is problem of the bullet rotation?

extends RigidBody2D

var bulletSpeed = 1200

func _ready(): apply_impulse(Vector2(), Vector2(bulletSpeed, 0).rotated(rotation))

If you changed that one line of code, all I can think of is that you didn't put your bullets/player/map at the 0,0 coordinate and you maybe accidentally dragged them. Creating a difference between the global position and where the objects are rendered.

i dont know, if i put the offset in 0,0 all works correctly. all i want is put the offset more up.

i've already given up on this for now, im stuck and driving crazy. i will look this later. i adapted all the characters and map collisions to the actual offset and works. its more complicated but works and i can keep going.

thanks anyway!!! Good luck with your alpha!
