Hi, My questions: Why your stars move without pressing they "play" button and why I can't "Reset" that?

@hkrhasleholm, Greenfoot has as command that will start the scenario from the world constructor. And resetting does work, but again starts the scenario and it is very hard (at least in this scenario) to tell that it actually was reset.

Great job This is so awesome, can u plz tell me if there is a possibility to make the stars divided randomly into space ??? I tried the following code but it didn't change it the way I wanted it to getImage(). fillOval(x,y,2,2);

addObject(stars[i], Greenfoot.getRandomNumber(getWidth()), getHeight()/2); this command is three times in the world class. you have to change the getHeight()/2 to Greenfoot.getRandomNumber(getHeight())

Just one last question, how to do the following: to call the move method from the world class?

you need a reference to the object in which you want to execute the move method and then call the method like this: reference.move();

so I put both the act and move method in the world then call it as you mentioned in the actor???

put this in the world class: public void act() { for(int i = 0; i < 100; i++) { stars[i].move(); } } and remove the move(); line in the star class in the act method
