Thanks! As soon as I tried this, it started working!

What you have is public void checkKeypress() { if (Greenfoot.isKeyLeft("up")) { turn(-3); } if (Greenfoot.isKeyRigh("down")) { turn(3); } } } It should be public void checkKeypress() { if (Greenfoot.isKeyDown("up")) { turn(-3); } if (Greenfoot.isKeyDown("down")) { turn(3); } } } Greenfoot.isKeyDown just means if the key is being pressed or not, not which key is being pressed.

Okay -- the slider class is not limited, as far as its behavior, to your project (other than what its name implies). That is, there is no code in it which refers to other classes specific to your project. This means that it is re-usable and portable (after generalizing the name and the value fields, 'temp' and 'particles'). In turn, it means that you do not need multiple classes, one for each type slider; you can have one Slider class and use it for all your Slider objects (the value field should be an instance field, not a class field -- not 'static'). Anyway, to get back to your issue,

The you only need at an instance int field for a delay timer. When a shot is fired set it to like 150 or 200. In the act method you can ask if it is zero or not; when zero, shoot if key is pressed; if not zero, subtract one from it:

I believe it is the auto-completion feature that is being referred to here. I am not familiar with the latest version of greenfoot; but, possibly there is some new control within the preferences that can be adjusted for this (from menubar: "Edit>Preferences.." -- maybe in the 'Editor' tab).

You could temporarily comment out all statements relating to sounds and remove the sound files from the project (saving them somewhere outside the project folder so you can re-import them later); then, see if you still have heap space issues.

Are you saying you fixed it with this? or are you continuing with your explanation of your issue and it is not yet fixed?

A mini-map should be an Actor object created by a subclass of Actor. It can update itself depending on the current state of the World object it is located in. Its behavior (code in its act method; or, its updating) can be defined for the specific type world you will be placing it in.

A String variable is a string of characters. You can create it like this: <Code Omitted>

This would be my way to figuring it out, This script goes on the level:

Okay, now I know... Thanks alot danpost!

Try to do it step-by-step. To start, you can use this: <Code Omitted>

Wait I think I just figured it out?? In my rocket class I made it where the man class would disappear if it was touched by it. I wanted the rocket to disappear when touched by the man so I took that line out and it started working. Now everytime I run it, I always lose 1 life.

At the end, add this: <Code Omitted>
