Shooting in both directions?

By Genota, with 1 reply.
Replied to by danpost, almost 5 years ago:

If you would rather not compare ALL the possible images to the current image, I would suggest you add a boolean to track the currently facing direction. Update it when a movement key is pressed and use it to determine shooting direction.

Now it works! Thanks a lot! I feel like these things are pretty obvious and straightforward but it sometimes just doesn't cross my mind. I guess it comes with experience and you gotta actually understand how Java works too :) . Thanks again!

Add an int field to maintain count of act steps. Increment it in act method. Do not add an Endscreen object into the world if one is already in the world. You could also limit incrementing of the act step count to the same condition. Maybe having the following line as first in act: <Code Omitted>would suffice for both.

The better way to do this

Is there any other way/action to implement the feature?

It would take some doing to implement it with just the GifImage class. An option is to add my Animation class which allows for a single run through the images. You can find it here. Use the GifImage class to decode the images; then get the images to create an Animation object at the time animation is to begin. Use:
