I don't if it is the problem but in check key press you're if don't have { } try this : public void checkKeyPress() { int speed = 3; if(Greenfoot.isKeyDown("up")) { setLocation(getX(), getY() - speed); } if(Greenfoot.isKeyDown("down")) { setLocation(getX(), getY() + speed); } if(Greenfoot.isKeyDown("left")) { setLocation(getX() - speed, getY()); } if(Greenfoot.isKeyDown("right")) { setLocation(getX() + speed, getY()); } }

Thanks Guys!!!

Move lines 50 through 55 to right after line 40 (inside the 'if (Greenfoot.mouseClicked(answerbox))' block) You only want to check this when an answer is given.

Ah, I see. I didn't know that creating a new GreenfootImage() would make it transparent (although now I do see it in the documentation). Thanks for your help

The issue seems to have resolved itself at this point, but I believe this is the problem because everything else was working except for the keyboard input.

Thank you Danpost! Everything compiled correctly!

When working with int values and a division operation is involved, make sure to do it last. <Code Omitted>

Sounds like the player ('someone') has to keep track of whether it has eaten food (and possibly how much food was eaten since the last time at the house). Then when at the house, that someone needs to bump the counter for each food eaten this go-around and re-zero the food eaten field.

OK THANK YOU SO MUCH I GOT!!!!!! :>=]

Okay thank you!

Oddly, this works now too :D Maybe i misspelled. Thanks again for your help!

This page of the Java tutorials might help.

Again, I cannot tell where this act method is with it by itself like that. I will say this much, however. It appears you are trying to create and start a new world by changing the background image of the first world. If you are, it is not done that way. It would still be the first world with a different background image; and, the constructor of the second world would never be executed. You need to use 'new background2()' to create a 'background2' world. You can create and set one active using 'Greenfoot.setWorld(new background2());'.

nevermind I didn't see he wanted to start a new method. I thought he wanted to make a boolean my bad.
