Thanks for the advice on both topics. Yeah key control got messed up because I was trying to add directional shooting for the bullets then I forgot to take it out once I realized that was not the way to do it. Thanks, Let you know if I make any progress.

That is not what is happening here. We are taking numeric values and adding their digital characters to a string. However, there are several good reasons why one might want to convert a numeric string into a number. This is often done when a numeric value is input as a string or read as a string from file data.

either <Code Omitted>or<Code Omitted>the diff. is dat "move" will be based on which way background is facing "setLocation" will move left regardless

u cud make it part of the heroes picture and a field in the hero will change the picture based on how healthy he is, so for example every 4 hits knocks down 1 of 6 bars changing the pic to only show 5 bars left, and so on

Thank you, that works exactly the way I needed.

I like to thank you all for the idees. As i needed to wait 12h to get my post approved i found another solution wich suits me pretty wel. I removed the idee of istouching and worked with 2 arrays in my enemies super.class.

I doubt that you posted the correct code or at least I am not sure how this is related to your question. Well, you could have something like this in your wolf class: <Code Omitted>

Put the 'if (life==0)' block at the end of the act method. Right now, when life reaches 0, the kogel is removed from the world. After that, you are trying to get an schip object at the position of the kogel, but the kogel is not in the world anymore, so it can't check for something at its coordinates.

You probably do not need an 'if' or a 'while'. You can just use something like this: <Code Omitted>

Switch lines 33 and 37. If you remove the actor (line 33), the 'getWorld' method (line 37) will not return the world, but 'null' (no World referenced).

You're right it works now. Thanks :3

Well, the first line is not within the method. This means it will execute only once, when the object is created. However, it will not yet be in any world and you should get a 'nullPointerException' when creating the actor. Now, as long as you ALWAYS have a Delo object in the world, and the 'getPosdelo' method is called from the 'act' method or a method called by the 'act' method, it should work as the first line within the 'getPosdelo' method.

Using 'ask' here might not be the most appropriate way to go about asking for a single character String input; but here we go. Since 'ask' returns a String object, there are two things that you should check for -- a length of one and whether the character is in the String "YyNn". As long as both are not satisfied, the question must be 'ask'ed again (using a while loop). You may even want to add "In

No -- just an separate object from the same class. My Value Display Tutorial shows how to make a Counter class, which your new class would be quite similar to; just that instead of an 'adjustValue' method, you may want to use a 'setValue' method.

Another way might be that you make all your instruction methods return a boolean value and place the following line at the end of each one: <Code Omitted>Then, your code would look like this: <Code Omitted>The semi-colon at the end of the while loop acts as an empty block of code to execute (no operations).
