GUYS NEED HELP

How to determine angle of shooting from a charcter(for example moon defender) without using the mouse to control the angle ??? only keyboard

till now i ahve got one logic

say when we press ctrl key (charcter running on right side) an arc becomes visble from 0 degree angle to 90 degree(parent to the character). and a marker is going up and down on this arc repeatedly with the direction of gun pointing/coinciding with the angle of marker.

by determining the postion of the marker instead of the mouse x and y (as in moon defender ) i believe same result can be achieved when shooting button is pressed. " the shot is fired at the angle of the marker"

but i am not being able to make the marker move in the arc randomly.

i ahve tried using path but thats not working, so how do i make the marker move on the arc ???????????

hey Jazz let me know what you think about the logic will it work ?

THERES A CLEAR " NO" TO USE OF MOUSE ,ONLY KEYBOARD.

will be waiitng with finger crossed
