oh

<Code Omitted>this doesnt work (its in an actor) i forgot 2 call the method

Oh that is helpful actually

What have you tried? It is always best to show what you tried. That way we can correct your ways and you can learn from that. Otherwise, we would just be doing the work for you and you probably would not learn much, if anything, from the experience.

It might be best if you show the entire class codes. Also, use code tags (see the link 'Posting code? read this!' below the 'Post a reply' content box).

Where exactly do you think I contradicted myself?

Looks like a 3-d issue. Try having the crusher remove the brick when the crusher is down to a certain point instead of using solely collision detection. You can use the height of the brick as the amount of distance the crusher is to the platform to determine when the brick is destroyed.

Everything works, but that is because I put it like this:

This is going back! What i did afterwards was open the project in Eclipse. There were loads of errors, but all i wanted was to get the documentation which Eclipse produced nicely - that might be of some use to you?

If the 'reloadDelayCount' does what I think it does then something like this: <Code Omitted>

Start with a method to spawn a pig (in your World subclass): <Code Omitted>Now, you can call it when needed. For example, if you want to occasionally spawn one and limit the number of pigs in the world to, let us say,

There are different ways to "time" events. One uses the number of act cycles and another uses the system clock. The system clock should only be used when real-time is critical. To determine which is better in your case, be specific and describe exactly what the timer is going to be used for. Also, indicate at what times, if any, the value of the timer is to be displayed.

When an object is encountered when moving vertically (as well as horizontally, by the way), the position of the actor needs to be adjusted so that it is not constantly "in" the object. Use the value (sign) of 'vSpeed' to determine if the encounter was a head bump or landing on feet. Then you will know where to position the actor with respect to the encountered object.

Can you please show and example of a project that will not compile -- the World subclass of the project. HOW TO: open your windows browser and select the project folder. Find the JAVA file that is the initial World subclass and open it in a text editor. Then you can copy/paste the code here. If you cannot find the JAVA file in the folder, then list the files you do see and give the type of each file here.
