Hi im making a medival game were you are suposed to use the mouse to swing a sword. so if you move the mouse from the left to right the sword shuld swing like that.

I have made this code were the swors shuld point towards the mouse but when i turn the camera the sword dosn't turn and on the y/z axis the sword goes up when the mouse goes down. and on the x axis the sword goes way to fast and dosen't point towards the mouse.

+ Code Snippet

    pick screen mousex(),mousey(),10
    msx#=get pick vector x()
    msy#=get pick vector y()
    msz#=get pick vector z()
    
    //swinging
    Position object weapon,camera position x(),camera position y()-5,camera position z()
    rotate object weapon,camera angle x(),camera angle y(),camera angle z()
    move object weapon,5
    point object weapon,msx#,msy#,msz#

Srry about my english im from sweeden

get pick vector x() gives an offset from the camera. Try this.

+ Code Snippet

msx#=camera position x() + get pick vector x()
msy#=camera position y() + get pick vector y()
msz#=camera position z() + get pick vector z()
