You just need to set the rotation of the shot to that of the actor creating it. So, if you are shooting a 'Bullet' object, then in the class of the shooter:
?
1
2
3
Bullet bullet = new Bullet(); // create the object being shot
getWorld().addObject(bullet, getX(), getY()); // add the shot to the world
bullet.setRotation(getRotation()); // set rotation of the shot

Maybe you are setting the rotation within the class of the "Bullet" as well, ruining the setting when added into the world. Changing the graphics does not effect the rotation unless your new graphics is not facing right to begin with when at zero rotation.

Does your player move left and right, then? Do you have a field to show which direction it is facing? I would help if you posted the code for the class of your player. Click on the link below the reply box 'Posting code? read this!' before posting the code.

Alright, you can tell the direction facing by the image being used. So, change my last line above to this:
?
1
if (getImage() == WalkLeft) bullet.setRotation(180);

i still have a question tho how can i make messages like zelda and pokemon and make it disappear after pressing "whatever" key

First create a subclass of Actor to display the message; then give it the behavior (using the act method) to remove itself upon "whatever" key press.
