Hi,

I'm extremely new to scripting and my knowledge is kind of bare. I've only Modded scripts up until now but I've been trying to create a Hud Button that Fires a Projectile In the Direction I'm facing when it's been pushed. So Far I've only been able to do this trough Mouselook, not with a Hud Button. I was wondering if anyone knew how this was done? I have the Pose and Object in the Button But Haven't a clue how to get it to fire. 

Thank you so much for any Help or Advice, I really appreciate it.

There's no magic in a button, whether it's on a HUD or anywhere else.  It's just a face that you click on.  Sense the click and use it to trigger an action.

The tricky part is scripting whatever you want the button to do.  Fortunately, in this case the "whatever" is not very hard. You launch a projectile by rezzing it with an initial velocity. As long as the initial velocity is in the +X direction, you're fine. See llRezAtRoot.  Just be sure that your projectile is physical, and at least temp_on_rez (although preferably scripted to die in much less time).
