Currently I have this animation:
?

public void hitAnimation()
    {
        if(count % 40 == 0)   
        {
            if(animationImage > 1)   
            {
                animationImage = 0;
            }
            setImage("polizeiautohit_" + animationImage + ".png");  
            animationImage++;  
        }
    }
I would like to play the animation for a specific time everytime it hits a specific actor. Hope someone has an idea :)

About how long should animation run? Is hit actor being removed? If not, will intersecting with hit actor be maintained longer than animation? Should animation repeat if still intersecting actor? Should animation complete for full run time even if intersecting is not continued? Need codes of calling method, as well.

About how long should animation run? About 3 seconds, doesn't have to be exact. Is the car being removed after it hits the mole? (new) No it is not being removed. But the World should be set to EndScreen after it got hit 3 times (Every hit -> lifes--; ) Is hit actor being removed? The mole is getting automatically removed after it got hit. This takes about 2 seconds. If not, will intersecting with hit actor be maintained longer than animation? No, the hit actor (the actor my main actor Car hits) will explode if touched by my car and afterwards be removed (whole animation is about 2 seconds) Should animation repeat if still intersecting actor? No, but its fine if it does. Should animation complete for full run time even if intersecting is not continued? Yes, thats important. Should the hit animation override the boost animation? (new question) Yes Calling method in RaceWorld:

        setBackground(new GreenfootImage("World.png"));
        GreenfootImage bg = new GreenfootImage("World.png");

        setMainActor(new Car(), 1, 1);

There are already existing animations for the car, so heres some of the car class code:

Hope this spam of code isn't too confusing, I tried to only paste the "necessary" code. If you need to see any other methods, hit me up.

Okay. It will probably be best to have a String field to indicate what animation is currently active. It only needs to be one of three values -- "", "boost" or "hit". A method to set the animation might help as well. Two benefits of having the field are (1) you only need one method to run any of the animations; and (2) you can easily determine which animation is active. So, this is the gist of it (animation codes only)

// when hit 3 times (similar for "boost")
setAnimation("hit");
