I am making a Frogger game and I am having difficulties delaying the movement of my objects. The "frog" that you control is a bee and the "cars" that can hit you are birds. I have my world set to 13 by 13 with each cell 50 pixels. I want to have the birds move from one side of the other and using move(1); moves them too quickly so I've been playing around trying to delay their movements. I've tried the below code, but when I use it, it lags the rest of the world and the more birds the slower they move and I can't control my bee anymore. Any help?
public void act()
{
movement();
}
public void movement()
{
move(1);
try {
Thread.sleep(300);
} catch(InterruptedException ex) {
Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
}
}
