Line 9 was just a test to see if the objects were actually intersecting *as you pointed out and as I found out they were not* I found a different way of working with it though. Though this way is not point sensitive, it did what i needed it to do.

Well, System.currentTimeMillis() returns a long not a double, furthermore, a double does not have enough precision to represent all possible long values. Finally, using a long is more efficient because it avoids the need for conversion between long and double.

Thank you much! You did help me really much.

Thank you very much danpost!!!

It is a complete conditional statement and it will regulate the firing of shots the way you want. It is much easier to say when to do something than when not to do something. One more condition will probably need added to it. The condition of the shot delay timer (is it zero); but, that was not part of the main subject matter. If you really want to do it like you tried above, then: <Code Omitted>however, this is awkward with the double-negative.

oh ok

oh well I'm new here so I wasn't sure.

The 'Game Over' and 'You Win' classes can be simple World subclasses. The 'Main Menu' class would be much more involved and would very much depend on how you would want to implement it (the menu).

Thank you! :) It worked great

Thank You for Your explanation!

Hello again... just got back. Thank you very much for everything. You and people like you put so much time into projects like this. I hope I will be able to do the same in the future :)

thank you !!! :)

Maybe it works too good. Comment out the top and bottom collision code and test it to see how the side collision is working. If it still teleports the character to the top of the platform, then I was wrong and I am sorry.
