SOLVED (GM8) error on bullet creation origin

[thejosving]

This one is simple. My obj_nailgun create obj_nail projectiles with their origin based on her origin (the gun), but since the gun rotates following the obj_cursor, the nails sometimes create away from the gun, bugging a little.
how can i fix this?

Look up the function lengthdir_x and lengthdir_y, and create the bullets at the origin of the gun rotation plus the relevant lengthdir value.

The sprite origin doesn't have to actually be in the sprite. Just make your sprites all face to the right by default (0 degrees) and set your nail projectiles origin to -16 or whatever so that it lines up with the tip of the gun.
