didnt know the empty act method would over ride something in compparts, fixed it and everything works fine, just need to move and resize to clean up the looks! you are the man sir!

What class do the Scenario1, Scenario2 an Scenario3 classes extend? Actually, to clarify, the objects are not titled with those names -- the classes that these objects were created from are called by those names. You need to supply any object created from any class a name of your choosing for them to have names. Also, you must do so at the proper place to be usable at all the possible places you need them to be. Examples of giving objects names follows:

It does. If that is not an option, the you need a reference field for the Correct object and an int field to count out some act cycles before removing it:

What is the issue you are having? and chapter 6 of which book/version? what code have you tried? Should start a new discussion thread so we do not have two issues competing against each other on the same discussion thread.

Please do not create more than one discussion thread on the same issue. Please do not reply to this thread. Discussion was continued on a different thread.

Then you cannot do it the way I suggested above. You will need a boolean field; but again, it should be an instance field (not a static field for each card). In fact, maybe it would be easier to put the two images for each card in an array and use an int field to point (as an index for the array) to the current image:

Add the following method to that world class: <Code Omitted>The started method is called for that world by greenfoot when it is the active world and the scenario goes from a paused state to a running state. I added the 'if' condition to prevent it from adding another if the scenario is paused and restarted. Of course, the name of the class of the object you wa

If you have similar members (methods and/or fields) in all the subclasses, then you only need to code it once, in the superclass -- as 'public' or 'protected'. So, yes. For example, your static Boolean fields for card#flipped -- you only need to declare one non-static boolean in the Cards class for that. 'Flipped' is a state of a card and is not something that pertains to all cards as a whole. So, it is the state of an instance of the Cards class. Now, something like the image on t

This is an internal counter here. In your case, I thought you had a healthbar that is shown. The healthbar might have the instance int field in its class.

You already have the Veylectra object as an Actor object called 'badguy'. You should get the healthbar from it. Something like this: <Code Omitted>

Yes. You can have two counter fields -- one to track the act cycles and one to track "seconds" (or groups of act cycles -- usually around 55 per second). So every time the act counter reaches 55 add one to the timer and reset the act counter back to zero. You can use a simple actor object to display the time elapsed. This is discussed in my Value Display Tutorial scenario.

I recomend you add an integer field, not boolean. After the declaration of your class, put private int health = some_number; this number will be the initial health of your Actor. In the if (), decrease the value of health. Example health--; Then you will have to add another if in the act() method to check if the Actor is dead and end the game. if (health <= 0)

Thanks!

At least remove lines 224 to 233. If execution makes it to that 'while' loop, it will run forever (an infinite loop) as the value of 'wrongcount' is not incremented within that loop.

Thanks, it works now.
