i have seen this game by JL235 wich is called space snake, i am trying to recreate it with my own version for a school project i have loaded all of my characters onto greenfoot but i cant make the snake move like it does in his game does anyone have any idea on what the coding is or how it could work like his? the game has the same concept to try and get the blob in my case the food but there will be things in his way to obstruct the snake from getting there to make it harder. here is the link to his game: http://www.greenfoot.org/scenarios/231 thanks for your help! :)

So I've got some code here that I whipped up in an attempt to get A* pathfinding to work. It's definitely calculating, but not at all reaching the goal. I haven't yet written any code to get the path, and haven't implemented replacing parents with new, shorter parent paths. For now I'm just hoping I can get atGoal() to return true. The code isn't exactly beautiful but it's fairly neat and legible. Square is a nearly empty class, it just uses Graphics2D to make a visible square. <Code Omitted> Then the accompanying classes: <Code Omitted> <Code Omitted> If anyone takes a look over this and sees something wrong (I may have messed up compareTo(), since I've never implemented Comparable before), any advice is appreciated!
