Orbit Position

[frozenwisp]

so I need a way to make a object orbit around the player based of the direction of the xbox analog stick I did it with the draw event like this
dir is based of the player object which is attacted to the code for a 360 degree analog stick/ the reticle length is the distance for the player.
draw_circle(x+lengthdir_x(reticle_length,obj_player_parent.dir),y+lengthdir_y(reticle_length,obj_player_parent.dir),8,false);
but I need it to be a object any one got a idea on how to do this:

i need the object to act like the drawn circle

You could do this:

obj_circle.x = x+lengthdir_x(reticle_length,obj_player_parent.dir)
obj_circle.y = y+lengthdir_y(reticle_length,obj_player_parent.dir)

Hope it's of help, if so, LIKE THIS! M8
