How do I rotate an actor so that it points at another actor that is moving?

Hello,

I am looking for a way to have an actor rotate to face a different actor (the main character). This way it can shoot stuff at it. I'm sure it is a quick fix, but I can't quite seem to get it.

Thanks in advanced,
Jack McGraw

Hey There,

Open GameSalad, Click New And then Search for Stay Locked on Target
Its Demo I made for a moving actor to stay pointed at specific point at all times. You should be able to rework it to your needs.

@tenrdrmer For some reason, there aren't any templates popping up besides the main ones. Do you have a link that I can go to to download?

Thanks

Well thats weird. I'll go ahead and upload the project file to media fire if I can find it.

Well My GameSalad would not bring it up either. I made you some thing new. You'll notice all of the little red "guns" constantly track the blue players positions as he randomly moves around the screen.
