| I am trying to make a game like Asteroids, where you turn your ship and press forward to move. If the ship is facing due right you can add to its X-value and if it is facing down you can add to its Y-value, but what if its facing a weird angle? Wouldn't you have to add some to X and some to Y using a weird formula to get the right amount? Help! |

| xadd#=v#*cos(angle) yadd#=v#*sin(angle) x#=x#+xadd# y#=y#+yadd# v is the size of the the amount you want to add angle is the angle in degrees anticlockwise from the x-direction you are facing. |
