Then, it is definitely spawning rockets. The question now is what happens to them? Give me a second to decide what to try next. You can remove the 'System.out.println' line from the 'spawnRocket' method in the meantime.

By the way, what code do you have in your 'shotManager' class. Please show.

Comment out line 25 in your Rocket class (as shown previously in this discussion thread) and see what happens.

I think that if you uncomment the 'stop' call and move the speed slider down a bit, you will see the animated explosion in slow motion. I believe it was just too quick for you to see it at the normal speed.

I just figured out that i had it backwards i was suppose to have it like this 
public void stop()
    {
        if(!getIntersectingObjects(Grounds.class).isEmpty())
        {
            shootingSpeed=0;
            animateExplodes();
            stopRemove();
        }
        else
        {
            shootingSpeed=8;
        }
    }
Thanks danpost.

I mentioned my concern over that code previously in this discussion:
I am actually puzzled about the code starting from there. If a Ground object is found intersecting, it does not seem correct to give it 'shootingSpeed'; and to remove 'shootingSpeed' if no ground is detected.
