Hi All! Been having trouble making my enemy move downwards every couple of seconds. I've got the part where it moves every couple of seconds it just doesn't move the right way, how would I fix this? 
 private int taxManMove = 275, taxManMoveTimer=taxManMove; 
   public void act()
   { 
       move();
   }
   
   public void move()
   { 
        if (--taxManMoveTimer==0)
        {
            move(10);
            taxManMoveTimer = 275;
        }   
   }

Change line 10 to: 
setLocation(getX(), getY()+10);
or replace it with: 
turn(90);
move(10);
turn(-90);
