Problem description:
Well, I coded up a little Projectile setup, and in the end it ultimately ended up having issues. Some issues it has are the head not showing up in the right place (shows at the tail until you release the beam, in which case it turns into a tail).
Sometimes it loses it's alignment, and furthermore it faces the wrong direction in some cases.
I'm less looking for a, "you did this wrong", and more looking for some better logic behind putting this all together, since it's getting increasingly complicated, when it seems like it doesn't need to be.
Also, here's a problem that causes your head object to not be the right icon state:
Specifically, this line:
tl.icon_state = "Body"Following this code, the head tile will stay as tl (Because it doesn't have a childobject). Just add a check to make sure tl isn't src.
