sf::Mouse::getPosition mis-understanding

[Garry_pro]

Hey, I'm making my first game with SFML, and for one part I need to rotate a sprite depending on the position of the mouse (local to window). The bit I dont quite understand is how you compare the position to another position, if ya get what I mean? I know what I have attempted below probablly doesn't make sense and is a bit random, but as I said this is my first game and I'm only a newbie.

sf::Vector2i mousepos = sf::Mouse::getPosition(window); // get the local position if the mouse

if (mousepos = (sf::Vector2i(-500, -100))
{
player.rotate(90);
}

You compare it with the comparison operator, that is: ==

Aha, why didn't I think of that xD Thanks

Maybe you need to read a bit further in your C++ book

By the way, are you sure you want to check for equality with one position? Clicking a single pixel will be rather difficult and annoying for the user.

I'm still learning, It must of simply been a human error
