i understand to fir a bullet you have to do this:

Do
If mouseclick()=1
Make object sphere 1,10
Position object 1,Camera position X(),camra positionY(),Camera positionY()
Yrotate object 1,camera angle Y()
Xrotate object 1,camera Angle X()
Endif

Move object 1,10
Loop

When i use this code in my game, when i press the mousekey, the camera positions itself at 0,0,0 and with an Y angle of 0 and an X angle of 0......... can anybody help??

@BigAdd

i had a similar problem.

u must have autocam turned on. just turn it off with the code "AUTOCAM off"

the reason being is that if u don't have it off then the camera will centre on the newest object created. in this case its the bullet.

hope thats helped ya

cool - I didnt know what autocam did - so if I turn off autocam, will I be able to get rid of all the stuff in my program that repositions the camera when a new object is made in the main loop?

Am I the only one here who's really confused?
