You cannot set the Gardener field of the SprayWater object when you do not have a reference to the object. Do not create the SprayWater object in the 'addObect' line -- create it before the line, set the Gardener object reference in it and then add it to the world: <Code Omitted>

You have an unbounded world -- you can put any object anywhere regardless of whether on-screen or not.

Thank you so much @danpost and @Super_Hippo my code worked!

The code given above does not give the behavior you were wanting. However, using the same added field, you can replace lines 28 through 32 with this to get the desired behavior: <Code Omitted>

You need to more specific in what you are attempting to do and what you are doing when you get the error and copy/pasting the entire output of the error message.

The transparency of an image is given in int values. This means that if you wish to fade back in as slowly as you are doing here, then 'fade' in line 13 will need to be converted to an 'int' value. I cannot say why you added the 'if' statement to the code as the Start_scr_a object would either be placed into a world because of that condition or automatically. Also, using a 'while' loop is not going to accomplish what you want as it is ran completely (in a single execution of act) before any screen updates -- lines 11 through 15 ( with 'fade' in line 13 corrected to '(int)fade' ) would be eq

Thank you so much :)

Try to use this instead of the current lines 11-16. <Code Omitted>

thank u super_hippo and happy new year to you and yours

@Super_Hippo I tried out your method and it worked, thanks. @danpost Yeah, I understand what it is you're getting at, I had troubles using 120 as the max value when the length of the bar was 320 due to rounding errors, so instead I'm just gonna fudge it (read: be lazy) and make sure all the values I use are factors of 300 for the bar length and bar segment length.

Thank both of you so much. All the errors are fixed and I am very grateful. I also appreciate how both of you have taken so much time to help us programming noobs with our problems. I tip my cap to both of you.

Thanks for your help

I will check out the tutorial and have a go at writing the code for one. I have now deleted the code that i wrote but if I run into further troubles I will let you guys know. I am writing the code now so I may return for help in an hour or so if you guys are around then. Thanks for the help!

Show your 'MyWorld' code.
