You cannot execute a non-static method without an object of that type (or, you cannot execute a non-static method with a class name). You need to get a reference of an object of that class and execute the method on that object. I am hoping you only have one Ship object in the world for the following code: 
Ship ship = (Ship) getWorld().getObjects(Ship.class).get(0);
ship.gotNuke();
Again, you must have one, and only one, ship in the world for this code. Otherwise, you need the following check: if (getWorld().getObjects(Ship.class).isEmpty()) Do not use the previous code if true.
