actor,
it is VERY, VERY simple.

to make the pointer point at another actor just change the code on the draw actor event of your pointer to,

Code: Select all: animpos = direction(x, y, yourotheractor.x, yourotheractor.y) / 10;

the reason I made this Dmo is because so many people ask how to rotate an actor,
so other people have to answer again and again each time.

ok well it goes the oposite direction of my mouse(btw in ge it shows 104 frames lol)

you have 104 fames?
then you must change your code at the end from / 10 to / 3.461538 or just to / 3.46.
