    Obj. Resets Rotation after movement (image_angle = dir)

    My obj in a top down click to move game has: image_angle = direction; It faces the direction it is moving towards, but once the movement stops, the sprite resets to it's original right-facing orientation. How can I force the sprite to stay pointed in it's last known direction? Thank you!

    Orient object's rotation to path

    Is there a way to make an object rotate as it goes along the path's curvature? For instance, if a path curves up, then the object will curve up as it hits that part of the path. Also, my objects have 0 speed, so can this be done without using the direction from speed relationship? Edit: by...
