Hi, I am making a top down game with twin stick type controls. I am using the following lines to make the player character look at the mouse cursor:
while (my)
{
vec_to_angle (my.pan,mouse_pos3d);
my.tilt = 0;
}
It works fine except for the fact that once I move from x=0, y=0 it doesn't work any more. I think it's because the command I'm using checks the cursor's position in relation to the origin. But I don't understand it in depth enough to know hwo to fix it. Is there a way that I can either chose the reference point as something I can move dynamically. Or is there another command or something that'll fit my needs better? Thanks

Here's the entire loop, maybe my problem is with how I'm moving the camera or something
while (my)
{
vec_to_angle (my.pan,mouse_pos3d);
my.tilt = 0;
//-----------Movement-----------
camera.x = my.x;
camera.y = my.y;
if (key_w)
c_move (me, nullvector, vector(20*time_step, 0, 0), IGNORE_PASSABLE); // move the player forward
if (key_s)
c_move (me, nullvector, vector(-20*time_step, 0, 0), IGNORE_PASSABLE); // move the player forward
wait(1);
}

Camera.tilt = -90
and I have this in main:
while (1)
{
mouse_pos.x = mouse_cursor.x; // allow the mouse pointer to move
mouse_pos.y = mouse_cursor.y; // on the x and y axis
wait (1);
}
plus
mouse mode = 2;
am I forgetting something?

Then debug the code (on your own), check critical values before calculation and the like. Btw. this is how mouse_dir3d behaves:
void main()
{
fps_max = 60;
level_load(NULL);
camera.z = 512;
camera.tilt = -90;
mouse_mode = 4;
while(1)
{
DEBUG_VAR(mouse_dir3d.x,20);
DEBUG_VAR(mouse_dir3d.y,40);
DEBUG_VAR(mouse_dir3d.z,60);
wait(1);
}
}
You can try to add a "if(mouse_dir3d.z < 0) {...}" line around your mouse target calculation block.
