yep! you should read this tutorial: [360° aiming - showcase + tutorial](https://forum.makecode.com/t/360-aiming-showcase-tutorial/15614)  
also if you want it to automatically aim at the closest sprite in range, I would read my tutorial on [[Tutorial] Making an Enemy Follow Multiple Sprites :snake:](https://forum.makecode.com/t/tutorial-making-an-enemy-follow-multiple-sprites/33914) , instead of making it follow you can just switch it out for shooting and aiming
