Do I need sync?
And sync rate?
Do I also need a do loop?

Why change the the world when it changes itself?

You do need a loop of some kind - the other two are not strictly necessary but are better to have than not.

Take a look at this: Shooting Tutorial

It's 2D, but if you understand how it works in 2D, 3D is the same but with one more axis.

Also, use the code button when you post code.

Use the 'Edit Own' button on the left, highlight all of your code snippet then click the code button at the top.

It keeps the posts smaller and doesn't lose your code indentation.

Ok, I added a do loop, but I get a runtime error when I try to run it.
It says, Line 11, Object already created.

Do loops repeat everything over, and over forever. You can't put things in a do loop that should only be done once like making an object. You put all of that before the do loop.

Don't apologise Outerblob. Brick Break is being rather obnoxious today.

NO. I don't look anything like my avatar!

I think you have been asked politely to put your code into code boxes enough times now. I even told you exactly how to do it.

This is the last time I am going to edit your posts for you.

I also pointed you at my bullet shooting tutorial. Did you even look at it? I ask because it tells you all the stuff you are asking about now.

Programming isn't easy, it takes effort - a lot of it. One of the boring things is to work through tutorials yourself. If you do this you wont be asking silly questions and getting everyone all annoyed.
