thank you so much

Write \n at the position you want a new line to begin.

To make the world unbounded: Double click your world subclass. Find the first line in the world constructor and add another parameter 'false', e.g.: <Code Omitted>To make an object remove itself from the world, use the 'this' keyworld: <Code Omitted>

The 'MoveWithPhysics' function is essentially drawing a line segment between my current location, and the new desired location. If this movement line were to intersect any wall, I want to place the player slightly behind the point of the collision (that way he isn't stuck in the wall). As for the fisheye-effect, thanks for the tip. I will look into that. Also, interesting fact about doom. I hadn't realized that.

First, I would add fields for a pre-determined destination grid-square: <Code Omitted>The initial value of these fields should be the coordinate values of the location the actor was placed into the world at. The 'addedToWorld' method can be used for this (so you can use 'getX' and 'getY' to set the value of the fields with). Then, to make things a bit easier, we will alternate between moving horizontally and moving vertically. This will mean only one tu

Thats great, thanks SPower and danpost

Um, assuming that you followed the tutorial word for word, it should work 100% of the time. Double check your code and make sure everything is exactly the same. If all else fails, then paste the problematic code here.

Thank you very much, this solution is great! The actor doesnt seem to stay near the same location in reality though so it works fine. Thanks again!

What are the differences between the classes? Actually, I do not think anything in those classes should be declared as 'static' (as yet), except for maybe the images. Remove all occurrences of the word 'static' in those classes. Note (do not make any changes for this unless you fully understand or get further help on this): I mentioned the images because currently, as your code is, each en

The problem is due to the limitations of the screen and the speed of your CommandMissile actors, which is one. The pixels in the screen are arranged in rows and columns. When moving one pixel, there are a limited number of ways the movement can be made -- horizontally, vertically or diagonally (to one of eight pixels). This drastically reduces the number of angles that the missile can travel at. There are a couple of ways (at least) that you can compensate for this; one is to track the location coordinates of the missile with more precision and the other is to save the starting location of

Sorry -- I wrote that out a bit quickly. Line 4 above should be: <Code Omitted>

THANKS FOR THE HELP that was the main issue causing my error and I'll go in and fix up that other stuff too.

Please show the code for the class this 'addedToWorld' method is location within. Also, show what code you are using to add the Skull actor into the world.

its ok now thanks anyways

You should start a new discussion thread on your issue -- not revive one that is over two years old. Also, you need to supply the codes you are currently using (the class of the enemy and the class of the playerheroes).
