Please read this advice, especially part 4.

We cannot help without knowing what code you are using. Please post the class code of the moving platform.

You are probably declaring the variable within a method or constructor. Declare it outside any method or constructor to have the actor retain its value.

Don't worry! I've fixed it- I had set my shotTimer at the beginning so the next command wasn't activated (if shotTimer==0).

oh, I wasn't really sure on how to use the getRandomNumber at first. Thanks for explaining! :) I'm almost done with my game. Thanks guys :)

Please refer to my Value Display Tutorial scenario.

omg you guys are the best!!!

You asked if an Actor can use addObject. You really mean one of two things: (1) can an Actor object add a new object of a different type into the world; or, (2) can the addObject method be used in an Actor subclass; Answers: (1) yes, any Actor object of any type, new or otherwise, can be added into the world by any Actor object that is either in the world or that contains, or has access to, a reference to the world the object is to be added into; an Actor object already in the world can use 'getWorld' to get the reference and the line would look like this:

Ok, thank you very much :)

Please be more specific. Eighteen degrees is specific enough; however, from what, how often -- every 18 degrees of turning? Might be a good idea to list here the rotational values at which you want the sound to play or if it is the sum of rotational change of both left and right turning that you want for playing the sound. Either way, it is not to difficult to code. The easier one to code is for every 18 degree

Thank you so much Letin!!!! I have another question..... Would you also know how to make the crab play a sound when he turns more than 18 degrees??

Thank you!

Thank you!

Steezyjapaneezy I posted the same question on here about lobsters eating every other crab randomly and I got some help! Try this code, it should work perfectly! // instance field private int touchCounter; // the 'lookForCrab' method public void lookForCrab() { // check for change in touching state if (isTouching(Crab.class) == (touchCounter % 2 == 0)) { // track state touchCounter = (touchCounter+1) % 4; // check for second touch if (touchCounter == 3) { removeTouching(Crab.class); Greenfoot.p
