thnx

It can be done; but, only locally. It cannot run that way on the greenfoot site or in a webpage.

never thought about it like dat

Replace line 18 through 23 of your Letters class, as given above, with it.

Will you be turning your actor (changing its rotation) when an edge of the world is arrived at? or, will it face the same direction and just move in the opposite direction? and, what have you tried, code-wise?

@danpost, I added code to the act method, placed the appropriate code in the appropriate methods and calmed down with my use of the brackets. Finally, after 3 days of getting no where my world is constructed! Thank you for all your help, I really appreciate it!

That works perfectly with the value set to 10 instead of 2, thank you very much for the reply and help!

Solved it.... There were two occurrences of the counter being defined! The first (which I had in the MyWorld) is shown at the top of my original post. I added this myself. The second occurrence I think has appeared when I saved the world. It was in the prepare method... <Code Omitted> The moment I removed it my code worked as intended. Thanks for your help guys, I know this is a stupid and basic issue, but I am just learning this from scratch.

got it stupid mistake forgot 2 call da checkHit method in da act

If you are using: <Code Omitted>then the method will only return a true value (because you are assigning 'true' to the 'hit' variable instead of comparing the two -- which '==' would do).

Ok thanks for your time!

We cannot say whether it is your code or not because you are not showing any of it. Please all codes related to the sounds (creating, assigning to keys, conditions for playing, etc.)

Remove the 'lives = 3' line and place the following at the beginning of the class: <Code Omitted>You also need an act method to call the lives method.

counter was not for this timer thing, it was for the score counter thing and is not releated to it

I forgot to include code to place the actor appropriately for the direction it will be moving. In the above suggested Car class, add the following: <Code Omitted>The 'addedToWorld' method is part of the Actor class -- and like the 'act' method, it is called by greenfoot. It is called when an actor is added into any world (when using the 'addObject' method of the World class).
