That's it! Thank you for explaining that. It seems so obvious now haha. Thanks again. It is much appreciated!

ok thanks thats a much easier fix and ill make all nessciary corrections later when we combine our pieces.

One thing is: you are storing the possible submitted responses in String variables, and then trying to ask if they hold a value of 'true'. Another thing: you are using 'Greenfoot.isKeyDown(String key)' to catch the response; using 'Greenfoot.getKey()' would be more appropriate in this case. One other thing (and I hope and pray that this is not what it looks like): the first line is not in a method, is it? (it should be a world variable -- and possibly static). Anyways, for getting the keystrokes:

Alternatively, it might be easier to create an entirely different world that you can switch into. This can make pausing a bit easier, since if you stayed in the same world, you would need methods in all the objects to support pausing.

You will need to track two things within the for loop, that need to be initialized before the for loop. One to hold to closest gun object found, so far ('closestGun'), and one to hold the closest distance of that gun object ('closeness'). As you go through the for loop, compare the distance of the current gun class object with 'closeness' and if it is closer than replace the values of both variables. When the for loop is done, 'closestGun' will contain the correct gun class object. Calculate the angle between 'this' and the 'closestGun' and pass that to the projectile object class c

Hi i have emailed you.....

uploaded the source now

Never mind, I took a closer look at my code and found that this works <Code Omitted>

yeah, I was considering doing that, but would that eventually lead to an unreasonable amount of actors? oh well, for my game I only really need the block one and then special ones like chests and bosses. Oh well, ill improvise

Oh ok that makes a bit of sense. Thanks for that :)

What u mean then? Cause the method, I wrote checks, if the spacebar was repressed. (From not pressed to pressed)

everything fixed. I needed to iterate through each element of my arraylist and apply the timeframe and the boolean variable

change getWorld().addObject(new Shot(this), getX(), getY()); setRotation(getRotation()); to Shot shot = new Shot(); getWorld.addObject(shot,getX(),getY()); shot.setRotation(getRotation()); that should fix problem

yeah i figured it was 38, i recompile each time, and there was only the other add object in the populate(); so i removed that, still glitched??

Thank you very much for this (very quick) response ! It worked, although I had to precise 'Greenfoot.delay(1)'. I am working on a new version of my Othello, available soon !! (still a few hours...)
