Legacy GM Ragdoll Towards Mouse!

[santeri kalliomaki]

I need to make my ragdoll move towards mouse.

If my cursor is in right side of the ragdoll it does what I want it to do

but if the cursor is in left side the ragdoll turns upside down.

Code of the dragdoll:

///CREATE RAGDOLL
//Torso
var Torso = instance_create(x,y,oBody_parts);
with Torso
{
sprite_index = spTorso;
event_user(0);
global.torso = id;
}

//Top
var Neck = sRagdoll(spNeck,Torso,0,-50,30,false);
var Head = sRagdoll(spHead,Neck,0,-50-20,30,false);
var Stomach = sRagdoll(spStomach,Torso,0,50,30,false);
var Pelvis = sRagdoll(spPelvis,Stomach,0,50+50,30,false);

//Arms
var Arm_L = sRagdoll(spArm,Torso,50,-20,90,true);
var Arm_R = sRagdoll(spArm,Torso,-50,-20,90,true);
var Forearm_L = sRagdoll(spArm,Arm_L,50+60,-20,90,true);
var Forearm_R = sRagdoll(spArm,Arm_R,-50-60,-20,90,true);
var Hand_L = sRagdoll(spHand,Forearm_L,50+60+60,-20,30,true);
var Hand_R = sRagdoll(spHand,Forearm_R,-50-60-60,-20,30,true);

//Legs
var Leg_L = sRagdoll(spLeg,Pelvis,20,50+50+20,90,false);
var Leg_R = sRagdoll(spLeg,Pelvis,-20,50+50+20,90,false);
var Shin_L = sRagdoll(spShin,Leg_L,20,50+50+20+70,90,false);
var Shin_R = sRagdoll(spShin,Leg_R,-20,50+50+20+70,90,false);
var Foot_L = sRagdoll(spFoot,Shin_L,20,50+50+20+70+70,90,false);
var Foot_R = sRagdoll(spFoot,Shin_R,-20,50+50+20+70+70,90,false);

//Change depth (Arms and Legs in front of Body)
Arm_L.depth = -1;
Arm_R.depth = -1;
Forearm_L.depth = -1;
Forearm_R.depth = -1;
Hand_L.depth = -1;
Hand_R.depth = -1;
Leg_L.depth = -1;
Leg_R.depth = -1;
Shin_L.depth = -1;
Shin_R.depth = -1;
Foot_L.depth = -1;
Foot_R.depth = -1;

instance_destroy();

Code of ragdoll facing direction:

if physics_test_overlap(x, y, 0, o_box){
phy_speed_x=0
phy_speed_y=-10
}

var ldx = lengthdir_x(0, mouse_x);
var ldy = lengthdir_y(0, mouse_y);
with(oBody_parts)
{
phy_rotation = point_direction(phy_position_x,phy_position_y,mouse_x,0)
direction = phy_rotation = 0
image_angle=direction.x
}

if x < mouse_x
image_xscale=+1
else
image_xscale=-1

I think the problem is somewhere in there. Thank you for reading and hopefully helping me out!

Because you are setting the rotation. You are rotating 180 degrees. You need to flip it instead.

direction = phy_rotation = 0
image_angle=direction.x

And what the heck is this supposed to do?

Could you give me an example please?

Supposedly it required rebinding the fixture. I don't know if anybody found an easy solution yet.
