I was wondering how to link sprites together to make a joint. I want one sprite to be able to rotate at one end, and have another sprite positioned at the other end. My goal is to make a character using multiple sprites (one for each limb) and create the movements by rotating the sprites, as opposed to drawing all of the movements from scratch.

I'd just make one big sprite, but I'm no sprite expert.

I create most of the sprites I use, but one of the reasons why i stopped working on a few programs is that it would take too long to make all of the sprites. For example, I stopped working on a fighting game because it took too long to create the sprites, and then I would have to add different collision for each character. But if i was to use multiple sprites for each character i could set it to deduct health from the other player whenever the fist sprite collides with the other player's head sprite.

Isn't simple at all.
You must rotate the sprites around the joint connectors not around the sprite center
then you must move it to the right place after rotation
It's posible with math but a tricky part too.

Are you serious DJLinux? What, does everyone only get one? Do I have to make a new topic every time I need help? Could you at least acknowledge me?

You could just make all hitboxes and characters the same. Yeah, artwork is the most time-consuming thing about making games, especially if you're not an artist. |

You posted a working code for me? Where? When? I know you did it once, when I had trouble in the very beginning, but not lately. I'll look for it, though. |
