hey, dan I need your help. I have a problem. I believe this if statement is working, but reading the wrong value of the integer rotate. What should i do
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
How to stop actors from "sliding" after calling the move() function and changing orientation

your QActor class, how do I access this?
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.

I cannot make my frog to move along with the boat that allow the frog to cross the river. i managed to get the frog to go on top of the boat but it wouldnt move at all. it would just get stuck on the boat and it would die.
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.

Need to execute sound.stop() once a sound has played through once

I want the class to play through the wasted sound once, and then once it has finished playing play the gameOverBGM sound in a loop. However, the if statements condition is never met and the gameOverBGM line is never reached. I can't just input wasted.stop() after wasted.play otherwise the sound will not play through once and it will immediately play my gameOverBGM. need some advice, thanks. << 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

Remove an Object when actor touches another object

I want to remove a block when the main actor touches another block to open up a secret gateway in my game. Been trying to figure out how to do this for 4 class periods but my teacher and I don't know how to do it and the 15 yr old tutorials on YouTube don't help.
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.

I want to create an explosion by changing an image in the missile, but the "Gegner" checks whether the missile has hit him or not. I have done this because the Gegner's hp is deducted for this. But now I have to somehow tell the rocket to change its magic. << Code Omitted >>
The following will call a
public
method that you can put in the
Rocket

1.I want to insert a red banana when The Monkey It Velvet will no longer fall ten bananas from top to bottom, but 30 bananas
Not sure what you want here.
2.I would also like to add a timer. When you start the game it must count down from 1 minute to zero and when it hits zero the game must be over
That requires an
int
field to keep the count of act steps taken and a basic actor to display the time remaining based on that count.
3.When the game is over, it must say how many bananas you have collected
The
int
field in
Actor has been removed from the world error
