You can use System.currentTimeMillis(); to find how long each act cycle takes for the different actors. You must then take into account how many of each actor you have.

What aspect(s) of it moving down is to be random? the speed? the turning? the direction? How random? what percentage of chance for each random aspect? What speed or range of speeds are these actors to fall (or move downward)? What code have you tried? How is it not doing what you want? Anytime you start a discussion dealing with programming, details like these are important. Without them, we are more lost than you.

Turning towards the objective every act cycle will help keep you in line, but not ensure that you will not pass up the objective if and when you do reach it. Using the Math.atan2 function is only another way to come up with the angle to turn toward and will not work any better. Better might be to keep track of the line between the original location and the target. Dividing this distance by the move amount will give us an approximate number of cycles needed to reach the target. If we divide the difference in the x-values and the difference in the y-values by this amount will give us the rea

@biermi The email was sended to you. And you can ask for help by email if you have any question in using it.(It's over 12 o'clock here and I have to go bed, but I would check my email every day) Again I want to @davmac @nccb @mik @GreenfootTeam I think there should be some way to write extensions for Greenfoot, Just like BlueJ did. Noticed that there is a "extension" folder in Greenfoot, would that be possible soon? Or is what we want already exists? Or, GreenfootTeam don't like to add this function for some reason?

Thank you.

Yeah, conjured up a rook out of nowhere to avoid losing its queen against me. But to answer the main question, absolutely. The maximum size of a scenario (limited amount of AI), plus not being able to write files (cannot learn), are restrictions that cannot be avoided; plus, time is something to consider (better AI takes more time to process, exponentially). Even with these considerations, a fair AI should be possible to realize. This would certainly be the case for more basic games, like checkers, four-square, tic-tac-toe, etc.

To end a while loop either the abort condition has to be false or you can end it using a break statement. You just have to write an if statement or anything else that checks whether the loop should stop and if so you just add a break; and the loop will stop.

where will i put this in the world or in the actor that will eat or in a new class

Oh, I completely forgot, thank you!

It appears you are calling the 'atWorldEdge' method from the 'Kitty' class constructor. There should be no need to call that method from there. No actions should be taking place at this time (your world is still in the process of being created). If you show your 'Kitty' world class code, someone may be able to help you resolve this.

Wow! Thanks! My friend suggested using arrays but he was unclear about it but yours is so easy! Lol I guess arrays are a bit far now

Store the rotation as a double, and calculate the movement amounts yourself (and use setLocation()) rather than using move().
