Yeah I know about the java.util.* import, I was just including the classes full names for clarity. But thanks :D

good good i was curious as to why it was in power up but was unsure

In my opinion, you have two options. Either: 1. keep the main character in the middle of the screen and always scrolling left or right. I.E. the character actor never moves independently. 2. Allow the character actor to move around and detect when it reaches a left/right point in which scroll will be activated. I.E. when in range of 100 pixels of left/right, allow scroll. There are likely to be other ways, but from all the games I've played since the early 80's, these are usually the two strategies employed.

thanks man taken care of =)

Hohoho, you are wise. Never though about it in reverse :D. Yeah, I think I'll just write a method in the "enemy" class that detects a collision with an explosion and if so damages the enemy type subclass.

Sorry! I'm posting before I think them through!! I realised that the tutorial spelled out what was needed for the first part (moveAndTurn) but not for eat. I have now copied the same format for eat and it's working fine. Thanks if you have tried to help me.

oh ok. Got it to work. Thank you all so much!!

Ah! Adding the 0f is what I was looking for! I assumed that dividing the int within a double would convert it to a double (float in the end in this case :D). Now my output is much more natural. -1.2990000247955322,-1.524999976158142 1.13100004196167,-1.9089999198913574 1.5109999179840088,1.5269999504089355 1.8029999732971191,1.7230000495910645 1.0019999742507935,1.3109999895095825 -1.4049999713897705,-1.8629999160766602 -1.4509999752044678,1.031999945640564 1.690999984741211,1.3170000314712524 1.0410000085830688,-1.5980000495910645 1.812000036239624,-1.6370000839233398 1.34399998188

I am so glad it works. If you encounter other problems just post up.

Mabye try to use an interface class, where is a method, that returns a copy of each Object <Code Omitted>and in the classes, that should be able to be copied: <Code Omitted>And the you can use the "duplicate" - Method, if you have a reference to an Object of the class Copy. For ex

Awesome! Thank you so much. That worked. so why don't we put the if statement within the boolean onFire and onWall methods?

Greenfoot has a default command <Code Omitted>Replace 'x' and 'y' with your desired co-ordinates.

Oh yeah! xD Thank you Builderboy! Sry, but I haven't been on this page for a long time. xD
