I have pinpointed the problem. The issue only happens when the player's code setsLocation more than once per cycle. It appears that it does has something to do with the interaction of the player setLocation from the player itself with the setLocation of the scrolling engine. I can, however, work around this issue by adjusting the height of the player's image and just moving that instead of the player (which I probably should of done in the first place, honestly).

Thank you so much! Your advice worked and I changed my class name to player to avoid complications . Again thank you

@SullyFish, you should avoid using 'Greenfoot.delay' in scenarios that require constant movement by actors. You will probably have to adjust your 'countdown' value to compensate. BTW, this discussion is two years old and there is now a 'turnTowards' method in the Actor class. Your 'pointAtObject' method can be written like this now: <Code Omitted>

Pretty smart actually :) I'll try that when I get back on my program

Thanks for all your help.

What is the class of the object that spawn the bullets? if it is an Actor object of some kind, what is its movement code, if it moves (which I presume it does)?

It could go after 'checkKeys();' in the act method; but, I think it might be better placed at the end of the 'checkKeys' method itself (below and outside the last 'if' block).

It's most likely in the checkForTwo(), the rest are seemingly functional.

That is the whole code, but if you want it in method form, it would be something like this: <Code Omitted>This method will return an empty String, or a String object of zero length, ( "" ) if the user is not logged in.

Please refer to the middle section, The condtional operators, of this page of the Java tutorials.

You could try something like have the bat turn towards the player, Use a countdown variable that gets set when you turn towards the character and each act method minus 1 from it, when it reaches zero turn towards the player and reset counter, this would be kind of like a gnat buzzing around your guy. Is that what you are looking for?
