You're right, so I don't know what to do right now. Adding an object seems to make the game lag for some reason.

Calling a Bar method from another actor class

Last reply by danpost, over 4 years ago:

You color list is not as I have given above. Should be red, red and yellow (for 0, 1, and 2, respectively). And if it changes color at all and the size of the bar does not change, I can only presume you made unauthorized changes to the Bar class.

Best way to use a text displayer with time ?

Last reply by danpost, over 4 years ago:

Put String objects in an array and introduce an int index pointer. Run timer from 100 to 0 multiple times. Use image of actor to display text: To make class reusable, bring text lines in by way of a parameter of the constructor. The constructor can also initialize the image to first line of text. Like this:

Using custom .ttf files to create a font

By Hull, with no replies.

In my current project, I've run into the issue that not all versions of Windows have the same set of fonts. I intended to use the "Alien Encounters" font, which doesn't seem present on the machines of the people working on this project with me (and my second PC). After doing a small deep dive, I've come across the fonts folder in Windows and reinstalled my version of Alien Encounters, for testing purposes. Ever since that, it's also broken on my PC. By broken, I mean not properly displayed: <Image Omitted> It's fixed by installing the .ttf for all users on the given device. However, one would have to somehow tell every user of the project to install the font. I don't want that, it's clumsy and seems inconsistent. So my question would be, is there a decent way to create an awt.Font off of a .ttf file within the same directory as the project, and convert that font to a Greenfoot font? That way, I could just ship the project with the appropriate .ttf and not worry about the local system.

How to reference scrolled Coordinates from actor class

I set every method in SWorld to public, but I still can't use them to set my main actor to the location I want.

The SWorld class is not to be modified. You can use "((SWorld)getWorld()).getScrolledX()" and similar for y.

I have to find another way to fix it

I would first comment out all of your while and do loops. If it clears up, you can start, one by one, reinstating each block to find which one(s) cause the problem. If it didn't clear up, then start commenting out more and more until it does. That should give you an idea of where to look and what might be going on.
