how do i get this to work? i have a sprite that i want to scale bigger as i hold down the mouse, and scale smaller when i let go of the mouse. what is wrong with my code. Function update_player() For p.player=Each player If KeyDown(200) Or KeyDown(17) MoveEntity p\ent,0,0,p\speed If KeyDown(208) Or KeyDown(31) MoveEntity p\ent,0,0,-p\speed If KeyDown(203) Or KeyDown(30) MoveEntity p\ent,-p\speed/2,0,0 If KeyDown(205) Or KeyDown(32) MoveEntity p\ent,p\speed/2,0,0 player_fire(p\wep,1);THIS IS THE FUNCTION THAT DOES THE SPRITE STUFF. mouselook() get_pos(p\ent) If EntityY(p\ent)>10 MoveEntity p\ent,0,-.95,0 Next End Function ;************************************************** ;************************************************** Function player_fire(parent,q) If KeyHit(16) Stop beam=CreateSprite(parent) RotateEntity beam,0,90,0 If MouseDown(1) scale=Sin(q) If MouseDown(1)=False scale=Sin(-q) If scale>0 Or scale<179 ScaleEntity beam,1,scale,1 MoveEntity beam,0,0,scale End If End Function

Try using ScaleSprite instead of ScaleEntity ?
