for some reason (wich I can't fathom) whenever the bullet reaches the edge it pops up an error box: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Actor not in world. An attempt was made to use the actor's location while it is not in the world. Either it has not yet been inserted, or it has been removed. at greenfoot.Actor.failIfNotInWorld(Actor.java:711) at greenfoot.Actor.getX(Actor.java:164) at base3.act(base3.java:25) at greenfoot.core.Simulation.actActor(Simulation.java:604) at greenfoot.core.Simulation.runOneLoop(Simulation.java:562) at greenfoot.core.Simulation.runContent(Simulation.java:221) at greenfoot.core.Simulation.run(Simulation.java:211) java.lang.IllegalStateException: Actor not in world.

public class bullet extends Actor
{
    /**
     * Act - do whatever the bullet wants to do. This method is called whenever
     * the 'Act' or 'Run' button gets pressed in the environment.
     */
    public void act() 
    {
        setRotation(270);
        move(5);
        if (isAtEdge())
        {
           getWorld().removeObject(this); 
        }
        if (isTouching(alienbullet.class))
        {
            getWorld().removeObject(this);
        }
    }
    
}

If it is at the edge, it will be removed. After that, it tries to check if it is touching an alienbullet but this fails because it is not in the world anymore. Change the 'if' in line 15 to 'else if', so it is not executed anymore when it was already removed from the world.
