Code: Select all
love.graphics.draw(gunsprite, px, py, -math.atan2(635- love.mouse.getX(),360- love.mouse.getY() ) +math.pi/2 , 1.3, 1.3, gunsprite:getWidth(), gunsprite:getHeight()/2)
bascally you account for translation when in fact you wanted it static.
This huge translation will bite you in the ass later on, i do not recommend it.

You need to convert the mouse position from screen coordinates to world coordinates before you can calculate the difference to the player for use in atan2(). It looks like the camera library you're using has a relevant function: camera:mousePosition().
