"Bullet problem" isn't exactly descriptive enough for any of us to help you. What exactly is wrong with the bullet?

you want to make multiple bullets for your gun instead of using the same bullet over and over?

You could either make an array of bullets and give them a life time. Or you could just have a shooting effect then do a raycast to detect if you have hit anything.

Better to be dead, than to live your life afraid.

hmm, would this help, a little bit?

this is just part of a much bigger program that I wrote, so there might be things missing, so you will have to figute some stuff out on your own.

In my entry for the Christmas Minimal Media compo, I just have a set of numbers that are designated for the bullets (say, 200 to 250). Then I use code like this:



Though you should probably check into raycasting rather than making objects and moving them.
This code works for me because my "bullets" are actually presents, and they are meant to seem "thrown" not "shot," so they move rather slowly. If you have real bullets, they are going to move quite fast, and this can cause problems with collision.

Say your bullets were moving at 10 units every loop, and there was a wall 5 units thick. The bullets are liable to move right through it and keep going:



Anyway, long story short, raycasting is faster and better
