On fixing 'Infect'
I am in Eastern Daylight Time- U.S.
Do you want me to upload something called 'epidemic' that would be your scenario with code to see how I would do it?
It has been removed.
Let me know what you think.
If you have any questions about it, I would be glad to help (if possible).
I am not sure what you are asking.
If you already added the 'private boolean gotInfected = false;' from my post 22 hours ago, then is it that you do not know how to make use of the boolean variable (where to put the code to make use of it).
If you already added it and are using it, then are you asking how can you convert it to an integer and make use of it that way?

As far as preventing infecteds from changing again, give UnInfecteds a boolean (true/false) variable, call it something like 'gotInfected' as such (add the line below 'private int direction')
private boolean gotInfected = false;
Instead of:
insert the line:
Then, where your code is checking to infect, use:
or something like that. You would need to add a method 'infectWorse' -- something that would show that the infection has worsened, and increment 'infectionStage'.
private boolean gotInfected = false;
private int infectionStage = 0;
if (infectionStage == 0) { infect(); } else { infectWorse(); }never mind, is it possible for something to change class? like the Uninfected turns in to a InfectLv1?
I do not believe Greenfoot has a method to change an Actor from one type to another. The only ways to get around that is to save the variables for the current Actor, remove it, and create the new Actor of different type, and re-instate the variable associated with it. The only other thing you can do is change the image and change a variable that stores the state or type the object is.
