Let's say you had in your MyWorld class a method that you wanted to call from an Actor subclass. Maybe your character dies and you want the world to show a game over screen, so you want to call the gameOver method:

I really do not see the need of the Game_Manager class. All the information stored in fields there can be determined on the fly, with fair programming. A Game_Over class extending Actor could be used to show victory or failure and at the same time be used to stop the scenario when added into the world with (in Game_Over class): <Code Omitted>Instead of setting fields

You might be doing something with images that is causing the lag issue. Make sure you pre-load your images. Make sure you always reference those pre-loaded images when setting an image. Keep your world at a reasonable size. I stick to not much more than (900, 600) world size (depending on the scenario). If using an unbounded world, make sure all actors are removed from the world after they leave the viewport

Thank you, now it works

First, you should understand that the rotation is already being held in the Actor class, meaning you do not need to declare another field for it. You could use something like the following: <Code Omitted> It is not really clear by your code as to exactly what you are trying to achieve with the turn methods Obviously, you want the crab to turn sharp at an edge, whic

It can be found in my Asteroids w/Improved QActor class scenario. Again, it is not to be modified in any way -- just used as is. Download the scenario and open in greenfoot. Then, you can copy/paste the class into your scenario. It does work differently than the SmoothMover class, however. Open the class and read through the instructions carefully. Actor subclasses requiring it should extend the QActor class.

Yes, thank you so much!

You need to show your current codes for both the frog and the boat. Also, you can look at other codes that do similar things. For example, my Jump and Run Demo w/Moving Platform scenario has an independently moving actor moving on a platform.

Thank you for your reply. At least I am not going to waste my time then. To bad, I can't do that however.

<Code Omitted> or <Code Omitted>

You cannot track the progress of the sound from the constructor of the class. Use the act method for this control. Also, line 22 is a bit redundant. T

Thank you so so much danpost! You have worked wonders in the progression of my remake of Stratego and I wish you a good night. I will try to let you know when the game is done.

Best would probably be to have an Actor reference field in the Block class (or a special subclass of Block) to hold the Block object that special Block object is to remove. That way, when touched, it will know which one to remove.

The following will call a public method that you can put in the Rocket class: <Code Omitted>
