Ok, there is a tut about it somewhere. I know it's on my harddrive but search CT forums, because that's where i got it. I think it has lots of maths and counters though. There is also a mouse roll speed checker.

I'd make it check the position after you've moved it, and see how much up and left you'd moved it, then you can somehow turn that into a direction (easiest way is the make an object and then another, with those offsets, make one look at another and check the direction...or something - but ofcourse maths could probbably do it better).

I might be 100% wrong, but that's what I'd try

I got that tutorial, thanks heaps Assault. But I actually do need a mouse speed tutorial also. I couldn't it at clickteam.

Well, that only kind of half worked.
