Extremely helpful! Thank you! just for reference: Created a global boolean <Code Omitted> then had the if statements check the boolean value like so: <Code Omitted>

Follow the link to the other discussion (in my previous post) - it has a link to instructions on how to clear the cache.

Thanks for your reply. I know that the coordinates are 0,0 top left. Wait a minute, if i addObject at 0,0 its actually the centre of the image, while a tile at 0,0 is at the top left. Lol, i need an offset of 12.5 for x and y coords in addObject, got it thanks.

Not sure - it probably shouldn't have done that (assuming you didn't actually instantiate the other world). Maybe a bug in the logic which decides which world was instantiated last; I'll check over the code when I get a chance.

The x++ did help though I appreciate the help

What does your current turn function look like? Seems to me if you move the car a certain number of pixels and then turn it by a certain number of degrees every time it acts then it should automatically turn wider the faster it is going.

No problem, glad to help. You usually do have to re-start Greenfoot after putting stuff in there.

ah, in that case I'll definitely implement the change :D thanks a bunch!

justine, I think you're saying there's still a problem with the German text? Ok, I see that one of the characters looks funny (I'm guessing it should be "ü"). The other languages are fine. As it turns out the problem with the German is in the Idiomas source code (maybe due to the character set on my system), not with the way Greenfoot handles the text. When I fix it in the source code and re-compile, the problem goes away.

I'm glad to hear that you got it working! I'll be sure to check it out.

Ok, thank you.

Thanks guys. I will use the System.currentTimeMillis() approach.

OK, sorry guys, easily fixed. Changed it to the following: aCar = new Car(); addObject(aCar, xPos, yPos); Now it works.
