I have just started to make "Krazyman Horde 3" ( you heard right  ) with whole new look and engine, BUT I've stuck into a one BIG problem: how the hell I should make a 360 Degree movement to player and instant hitting bullets?
I've thinking the game would include these features too:
-the camera would follow in between the player pos and crosshair pos
-the direction of player looks always (but doesn't move) towards crosshair (in 360 degree engine)
So... I ask now: how do I make these features? Please send here tutorials and/or code to save my life!

Instant hit bullets for TGF:

And a 360 degree movement engine (race car, but you can change it easily)

I meant COMBINED 360 degr. movement and Instant hit bullets, but I'll look at the samples!

Excellent tuts, but one question: Is there any possibility to change the "360- degree thingy" direction depending from the mouse? (Player looks crosshair/mouse and degree value changes) It would be quite nifty...
you know, I'm not so good at Advanced Maths plugin and stuff

I believe there's a 'Get direction from fixed object to X/Y' expression - set the fixed object to your player, and use XMouse and YMouse for the X/Y values.

You can even do it without the advanced math object:
Angle = ATan( ( Y("Object") - YMouse ) / ( X("Object") - XMouse ) ) * 360 / 3.141592654
Although there's not much point if you're already using AMath.

That method can also cause divide by zero errors, so be careful.
