I'm writing a Jetpac game but am having a problem with the laser. I need to fire a laser from player position but not have the laser move left/right when player does.
I can't work out how to store temp co-ordinates for laser starting position. I have asked for help before but could not understand it so, if anybody can help I would really appreciate it.
