If you want to prove if there is an object type uman near you, you should change the method like this: <Code Omitted>

Oh I solved it. Thanks anyways though.

Thanks!

You could set up an array to map the world. It could be of 'int', 'String' or 'char' type (guess it could even be of 'Class' type -- not that I would recomend it). This map could be used not only to create the initial background, but also to determine what is where during game play. Another possibility is to use color detection to determine what is where. This would involve breaking the color up into its primary color components and checking the values for certain ranges to distinguish between the different types of terrain (brown=mountain, blue=water, tan=dirt, green=grass

Thank you.

btw, is there a way to delete discussions?

Hi. Yep, just putting in +i+ between closed quotations worked very nicely. Thanks a lot for the clarification and the hard work as always! :D

Actually, what I was saying was that the boolean tracks whether it has been hit once or not. <Code Omitted>Just call 'checkHit();' from the 'act' method.

Ok, that makes sense, thanks

If you want any insight into it, it involved working with the 'Class' API using the 'newInstance' method which will require some knowledge of working with exceptions. It would be something like the following: <Code Omitted>However, this would require passing classes instead of strings.

Thanks so much for the quick and helpful replies - really appreciate it! It's working great now. :)

Ah. Such a shame. This community could benefit from a good communication system. Thanks for the reference to the scenario. I might end up using it.

nope I change a bit the code in the missile.
