public void stack() { Actor a = getOneIntersectingObject(Ingredient.class); if ((a != null) ) { System.out.println(((Ingredient)a).name); //getWorld().addObject(a, this.getX()-50, this.getY()); //if (stackW != 1) Ingredient x = new Ingredient(((Ingredient)a).name); getWorld().removeObject(a); getWorld().addObject(new Ingredient("Tomato"),50,50); { getWorld().addObject(x, this.getX()-50, this.getY()+10); getWorld().removeObject

The button objects retrieved from the world are not cast as Button1 and Button2 types -- they are returned as Object types. Use this instead: <Code Omitted>

Thank you very much Super_Hippo

Using only the methods given above (with loops and ifs, etc), there is no shortcut way to detect when to call 'stop'. Therefore, you must code 'if' within 'if' for each direction until either a leaf is found to eat or all directions are exhausted. Something like this:

Oh thanks it's working now

Are you getting an error message when it stops? if so, what is it? (copy/paste in entirety)

wow, thanks! I didn;t realize that defining them like that would cause such a confusion. I had them defined because my code was pretty long and i got lazy when it came to typing it out literally :) Thanks again!

Thanks for help guys I figured it out, but thanks :)

Line 11 will never be executed. The 'if' condition at line 7 will always be 'true' because you are actually assigning 'true' to 'direction' within the 'if' conditional part of the statement itself (direction = true). To just compare the value of 'direction' to 'true, use the conditional equality symbol ('==') of a double equal sign (direction == true). Because 'direction' is a boolean value in itself, you can just use its value as the condition, 'if (direction)' or 'if (!direction)'. Furthermore, after correcting that, you will find that the logic of the 'act' method would say to set the v

If all images have the same file suffix, you can also use (for example): <Code Omitted>

in the begining I had a lot of trouble with this to but I made an IOhelp class and now I understand it you can take a look at it

I did it by putting everything in the act method to a 'everything()' method then I did if else statement (this != null), if part is time is ticking, else part is it is not. So it is working. I had some issues on printing the time in the middle on the scoreboard and removing the other one but now I figured it out. But... I have another problem actually not a problem but a improvement, so I have 5 different enemy planes in the game and I used this for giving numbers to them. <Code Omitted>But now I wanted do them increasing a

Please elaborate. It may be that the one class should not extend the other. Say you have a ClassA and a ClassB. If you cannot say a ClassB object is a type of ClassA object, then ClassB should not extend ClassA. For example, if I had a Car class, I can extend it with Sedan, Coupe, and Wagon (these are types of cars); but I should not extend it with Bicycle, WindShield or Truck (these are not cars). However, with the code provided, it looks like you are trying to set field values 'x' and 'y' by calling a method that requires the actor be in the world. These fields are created and ass
