What do you plan to do this Summer?

By FlyingRabidUnicornPig, with no replies.

Summer officially started for me today, and boy, do I have a lot planned. I'm planning to go away from greenfoot later this month or next month, and work on something either in LWJGL or some other package, or maybe work with Actionscript. I want to finish my current game (possibly first in greenfoot, than port/rewrite most of it for LWJGL or acitionscript). I also want to try mobile app development, and maybe post a free app or two. I might also work on a Minecraft mod or two, to try coding for not just a different engine, but to mod an actual game. Than if I finish all that, and feel confident enough, I might start trying a 3D game. My ultimate goal this summer (or before next summer) is to create a game that is good enough to sell (or has in game purchases if a free game). I know it's a lot, but I really feel confident that I might be able to do all of the above this summer. So what do you guys want to do? Any games, apps, or other things code/greenfoot/java-related you plan to do this summer?

GifActor not working.

By Entity1037, with no replies.

I know, I post a lot of discussions. :/ But this problem I'm having just doesn't make sense. I'm using the GifActor (from this scenario: http://www.greenfoot.org/scenarios/260) to play the gif images, but they arn't playing unless I set the image inside the addedToWorld method. I really hope it doesn't have to be in the addedToWorld method for the image to work, because that would really bite! Does anyone know why it doesn't work?

Yes you're right. I forgot to delete these lines^^ I had the same thought, but I really don't know how to start and which methods I need. And don't wonder about the class names, they're german. But thanks for your help. I'll tell my teacher that he requires too much of me. Because the creation of the world was only possible with his help. I already asked my friends for help but they don't know neither.

Better way to sort popularity

Last reply by Game/maniac, over 11 years ago:

I thought it might help let other people get a chance to be popular. I think that it should flow around so the popularity list doesn't get jammed up with people that have like 200 votes over time.

You better post the whole class. Although the error message points to this location, it does not appear to be in the part you posted. By the whole class, I mean select all the code and copy/paste it using the 'code' tag below the inputbox.

The act() method

By Fadel, with 1 reply.
Replied to by danpost, over 11 years ago:

The act method is just like any other method in java. The only thing that makes it special is that the Greenfoot system repeatedly calls the act method on all active objects while the scenario is running. Active objects include the active world and any actor object that is placed in that world. The act method can, however, be called on any object programmatically; but, this is not a very common occurrence. There are other methods that are automatically called in Greenfoot. These include the World class methods 'started' and 'stopped' as well as the Actor method 'addedToWorld'. These me

Changing levels

By rachel1495, with 3 replies.
Last reply by davmac, over 11 years ago:

Ah. I guess that the "if" block is in some code that gets called by an act() method, which gets called every cycle. levelCount.getValue() still returns 1, so the condition is true and level 2 will be set continuously. One way to avoid this is to only set the level when the levelCount is increased. For instance, move the "if" block (from the player class) into the world's countLevels() method.
