Hey guys. I'm not sure how to word this, but here goes. I want some sort of path coming from my character that shows its path and where its going to land, which follows the user's finger on the screen. If you have no clue what I am talking about, check out this video.

    that would be a very popular game i'd imagine if you got it to work and seems do-able but i haven't gotten around to working with angles but would be interested in the solution. have you had a look at the gamesalad cookbook videos on youtube?

    Search Trajectory demo in the GS creator. You will find a free demo by ORBZ that does exactly what you want. Well kinda. It has the dots coming out just like that. No need to buy the template just for that.

    thanks outasite for that suggestion and thanks DreamLab for the free template. Now would somebody care to explain what half of that stuff even means. Or like tell me what it controls so I can modify it. Grade 10 math doesn't teach ya all of that :P

    @Outasite.

    The main page of the forum is a place to get free answers. not paid answers. Please don't send people to paid templates when they have come looking for help. That should be a last resort for helping people here. if they want to buy a template they can go to the marketplace anytime they want to spend money.

    @chesspawn.

    If your not really understanding that free demo then you should really spend a lot of time watching all the cook book videos. as well as tweaking little bits and pieces of the expressions to figure out what each part does.

    Almighty sorry for any inconvenience to anyone looking at post. I had just watched the video, and it was the first thing that popped into my mind.

    My apologies.

    Hey guys, I looked over the whole demo and, surprisingly enough, I actually get some of it. However, I can't figure out for the life of me that if I move that gun and hit preview, how to get it to start spawning dots from the middle of the gun, not the side. The reason being is because the ninja in my game will be moving. Also, I kind of understand little bits of the formula under Plot Points, but can somebody explain it in a bit more detail? Thanks for the help guys. I REALLY appreciate it!!
