How to make clone (of other sprite) move the direction of my sprite

ehjert

Hi.

I'm very new to scratch and I'm doing a try on a game where I would like my main character (a beetle) to shoot. I have figured out how to clone the “shot” and how to shoot it, but it only fires one way. I have tried to point it the way my character is facing, but it only shoots the way that the shot is faced in its original form.
How do I make it fire in the direction of the beetle.

Hope this question makes sense. I have shared my game. Would really appreciate if someone could have a look at it.

Thanks in advance.

You're close - use the point in direction block instead of point towards.

point in direction ([direction v] of [beetle v])

Thank you so much. I must have seen this block in other descriptions, but probably got a bit confused in the translation of blocks since mine are in Swedish.

Thank you once again!

when I start as a clone
glide (1) secs to x: ([x] of [Sprite1 v]) y: ([y] of [Sprite1 v])

That will move in that direction but doesn't tell the sprite to point in the direction which is what was asked for.

Please create your own new topic and explain what you need. Also don't post in all-capitals which is considered the same as shouting in real life.
