PLEASE LOOK AT OUR PROJECT

I am not sure as to which one you are referring. However, both (Elerun and Deer Simulator) are good, challenging games. Only things I noticed were the following: Elerun: * hitbox for elephant is way too large * balls can spawn too close to elephant (at times) * horizontal wrapping is not directly across the world * could use a game over message Deer Simulator: * could use a game over message

thank you dan you're my god

i am very confused, do you think you could possibly write out what you are talking about for me?

Put the "-12" back in the last line of code; change the "4" back to a "3" in the setHour method; and add another if block in the setHour method to deal with those newTime strings whose length is 4.

Please Help With setScore and getScore

Last reply by drewr1122, over 6 years ago:

Why would you need a setScore function? are you starting with different scores on different levels? If you want to add scores, create a function that simply adds an integer of change (in other words an amount of points) to your current score.

Moving Backgrounds - Question

there must be a situation when you see it wandering from right to left and seeing that the background image below is resting. But from beginning on it works perfekt and everything is wandering perfect without seeing something resting in the background ..... That is perfect, but it is not clear to me why it is so perfect ...

I am not sure what you mean by "image below is resting". If you want clarification on some point, you will have to be more specific, show all codes used for scrolling (other than the Scroller class itself (which should not be modified

Games are the easiest way for a beginner to practice programming though. At least that's my opinion.

Yes, but one must first become familiar with the basics of the java language and what methods are available in the classes provided in the greenfoot package. Looking through the API documentation of the classes should help immensely in the latter, and the java tutorials should help with the former. Then trial and error programming will help in learning what is possible as well as how to accomplish things. This last part can be done while creating your game;

Counter not working

Replied to by danpost, over 6 years ago:

You create a Car object, but show a cars class. Cannot do anything about the counter until it is known what you are doing there. Remove act(); from the Level2 class constructor and then take the first 3 lines in act and move them to the prepare method.

I want my screen to automatically scroll into the according direction when I hover my mouse over the bottum/top/right/left.

Please refer to my Scrolling Tutorial scenario. It does not specifically cover mouse-at-edge action, but other than that, it will not be any different.

Contact during the whole time if object1 via object2

I want whoever a lobster sees a crab to only get one life ripped off. The problem is that the crab "crawls" over the lobster and has about 5 times contact = lifetime is deducted.

Your solution might work (with some minor adjustments) if not for two issues. The first one is that you probably have multiple lobsters in the world. A boolean field like hits would only detect (a) crab intersect any, but unknown, lobster; or (b) crab not touching any at all. That is, it does not track which lobster is intersecting. So, if a 2nd one touches while one is already inte

Hide cursor in Greenfoot 3.5.0 onwards

By AlexDascalu, with no replies.

I am trying to update the code for a Greenfoot game I made so that the mouse cursor is hidden. In previous version I manage to do that with some Swing code but since 3.5.0 switched from Swing to JavaFX that code no longer works. I know how to set the cursor if I have a reference to the JavaFX Scene, and I have found in the source code the GreenfootStage class which extends Stage, but I can not find a way to access the GreenfootStage of the game. Can anyone please help me?
