I wanted to get an ArrayList of the neighbours of an actor at the position x,y, but it doesn't work! this is my code 
List neighbours = (getOneObjectAtOffset(x2, y2, blankSquare.class).getNeighbours(1, true, blankSquare.class));
the error is as follows: <A>getNeighbours(int,boolean,java.lang.Class<A>) has protected acess in Greenfoot.Actor

An actor cannot tell another actor to perform any collision type method as all those type methods have protected access.. That means that in the following line of code: 
List neighbours = this.getNeighbours(1, true, blackSquare.class);
you cannot replace 'this' with any other actor. You will have to call a method in the blankSquare class so that the blankSquare object can call the method on itself and return the resulting list.

ok, i tried it like this: 
List neighbours = getOneObjectAtOffset(x2, y2, blankSquare.class).getNeighbourList();
but it gives me the error "cannot find symbol..."

You have this: 
getOneObjectAtOffset(x2, y2, blankSquare.class).
replacing 'this.', which again you cannot do.
