Hi guys and gals, Happy New Year to everyone! I have decided to start a Greenfoot programming video tutorial series, called The Joy Of Code. It will be on my blog, here: http://blogs.kent.ac.uk/mik/ There's an announcement there now — go and read it. If you are interested in learning more about programming with Greenfoot then keep an eye on it. We will start with basics and then go into more advanced topics after a while. And you can ask questions and suggest topics! Hope to see many of you over there. Michael

Why does this give <Code Omitted> <Code Omitted>

I am trying to make a Solitaire game. The Game In the comments, under "Bugs", the one with the ace problem, is the one this thread is about. this is the code for the card class.<Code Omitted>

I have a game where there is gravity and when it lands on a platform it stops. how do i define it to only land on certain actors and not others?

i need help on figuring out how to make a scoreboard appear at the end of the game. any ideas?

I really need help for how to use Greenfoot if anybody can contact me and help it really won't be a bad idea .. I'm seriously lost :/

I'm stuck on keeping score in my game... Its Pong, and in the ball class I can easily create a score variable and add to it every time the ball is removed from the game, but what I can't figure out (perhaps just as a result of sleep deprivation) how to access that variable from my scoreboard class. Or is that not the best way to go about it? If someone could please point me in the right direction, that would be lovely :) let me know if you need to see any of my source code.

I want a scoreboard at the end of my game when you lose or die. Want it to be along the lines of GAME OVER Score:(***) TRY AGAIN? ive had a score board before but never was able to get it to apear at the end of the game anyhelp?

I'm programming a version of Pong, and I have almost everything sorted out except the scoreboard. I'm not very good at doing scoreboards, so I compared a lot of different ones from different projects I have saved and tried to throw together one of my own. When I can get it to compile, it never displays the scoreboard properly, so I think I wrote it incorrectly, but my biggest problem right now is that it compiles with no syntax errors, but every time I try and add it to the world I get a nullPointerException, and I can't figure out why. Can anyne help me with this?? I'll post the source code for the ScoreBoard class below: <Code Omitted>

Hi again. I am trying to create a version of teh game Mahjong. I have uploaded a basic version of my current project which only goes as far as creating a set pattern of randomly chosen tiles. However, there are gaps in the pattern and I can't see where I went wrong in the code that causes this. The gaps seem to be randomly distributed and the basic shape of the pattern I am trying to get is there, but the overall cover isn't. Any help would be appreciated. As I mentioned the project can be found on my profile. Many Thanks

Can one object tell other objects in a world to do a certain action? I've seen programs that must use this, but I cant seem to do it. Any help?
