What do you mean by "changing the default Font"? You're correct that you can't change the default font, i.e. the font that you get when you use the default Font constructor. You can also use an alternative constructor to specify a font name, though it will only find system fonts (i.e. you can't make it use a TTF font included in your scenario). You can use a font created in this way to draw on an image. However, the GreenfootImage constructor which creates an image from text always uses the

Ok, thank you so much!

The intersecting object, if found, is an Actor object -- and more specifically, a Key object (an object of type Key). Your condition in the if clause is whether Key is null. The compiler only knows Key to be a Class object. It is not defined more locally to be anything else. But you cannot remove a Class object from the world -- you can only remove an Actor object (or an instance of a subclass of Actor) from the world. Look over the given code and see if you can determine exactly what you want the condition to

HO... thank you danpost!!! this does solve my first problem! THANKS. ahh, I have been troubling over this all day and it has frustrated me at every turn thank you for relieving me of this stress. although now I still have the multi-world problem... but ill come back to that once I finish a little more variables... ill prolly post that problem later if I cant solve it. (mostly cause I don't have any idea of how to do it), but as said later. for now ill keep working on the code. then again thanks danpost and yehuda for helping me. I'm glad I was able to get this off my back.

The problem is you have 3 distinct reasons for removing the actor from the world, but you cannot check subsequent conditions if a previous condition was true and the actor was removed -- mainly using getX. You can concatenate the possible conditions for removing the actor so that no other code needs to execute after the removal. Replace lines 69 through 90 with this:

Ooh now I see!! Thank you so much, it works now!

Thank you that, I'll give it a go.

Look at your act method. While doing so, ask yourself when the other methods (touch, hitrocket and rocket) will execute. Keep in mind, the greenfoot framework only calls the act method (in general) to execute.

Line 24 in the Road class does not look right with getHeight in the x-coordinate expression. That is the first thing I had noticed, at least. You should probably think through exactly what that method should do.

Please show your addScore method in your Rocket class.

Remove line 2 from the Counter class -- this one: <Code Omitted>

If by snipercard, you mean turretCard object, then: <Code Omitted>or <Code Omitted>

Have the ship control the location and rotation of its fire object. When ship moves or turns, adjust fire to match.

Ok i got it to kinda work but now it goes down way to fast i want it to take a sliver of the health not a small chunk

it works.thank you so much danpost :)
