In the game that I'm working on, when an actor performs a certain action, a message box is supposed to show. The message box is another actor in a different class. How do I get this to work?

How do you let one actor call for the action of another one?
Usually, it is something like:
getWorld().addObject(new MessageBox("message"), xLocation, yLocation);Thanks, but now theres another problem. When the actor calls the method, more than one message box appears. they just layer on top of each other.

This is probably because your Act() method keeps calling the worlds addObject method and drawing messagebox's. You need to set a condition to do what you want.how exactly do i write a code for that?
private boolean messageShown;
public void act()
{
checkMessage();
}
private void checkMessage()
{
if (messageShown == false)
{
getWorld().addObject(new MessageBox(),x,y);
messageShown=true;
}
}
Thanks dude! It worked :D
