After reading over what you have posted, I think we are in the same class! Haha.

Ok tnx,(y) I just tried to close the window of my class, I didn't think of close the full program while I was busy working on it ;)

You can use JOptionPane objects to get user input; or you can program it yourself to better control how it works. See the Java tutorials on how to use JOptionPanes.

Yes, that worked! Thank you soo much. I'm still trying to learn all of this...

Hadn't noticed that.....

You cannot use 'song.stop()' unless you first use 'song.play()' and have a reference to 'song' declared in the class. Therefore, in your 'play' method, use 'song.play()'. In your field declaration area, change line 13 to 'private GreenfootSound song;'; then in your constructor, change line 19 to 'song = new GreenfootSound(soundFile);'. You can remove lines 32, 33, 34, 38, and 43; as the 'loop' will only run once anyway. You can remove lines 47, 48, 49, 53, and 58; as the 'loop' will only run once anyway.

It looks like you have your crab turning randomly about 5 to 6 times a second and up to a 45 degree turn left or right each time. You may want to reduce the change of a turn a bit. And maybe reduce the amount of turn also.

Ok I kinda solved my problem using the counter class imported thx

You need to set values for 'direction' and 'speed' in the constructor for this object.

The image with the blue frame on the help screen is rendered with a size of (556, 580) on my system (I do not know why it would be different for anyone else). I did change the draw location for the actor images from an absolute offset from left of the frame image to an absolute offset from the center of the frame image (hope that helped).

Thx for the tips! I added also the checkForNextLevel() in the act method to make it more easy. It looks like that now:

You will probably find that the image will distort as it grows in size. This is because you are scaling the image multiple times. To avoid this, scale the original image each time. <Code Omitted>I added one to the y-location to prevent error creating an image of zero size. If you feel that the image is too large by the time it reaches the bottom of the screen, you can modify the code by using a ratio. In the above the ratio is one, which makes it full height of screen at the bottom.
