How To Make Moving Character By Alternating Arrows
Aug 8, 2014
I've started creating a simple game in Java, but I'm still a beginner, so now I'm stuck. I wanted to make moving character by fast alternating arrow keys, but I don't know how. I can make a boolean variable, which disables moving by pressing the same key again, but the player can just hold the key and character is still moving. I thought about changing position of character when the key is pressed, instead of increasing speed, but then the movement wouldn't be smooth. I think this may sound incomprehensible, so I will add a link to game like an example of what I mean.

After i draw line between 2 fixed points on two different rectangles i need to rotate them. The problem is that my line is not updated, it stays on the same x1,y1 x2,y2. How to make line to follow rectangle when they are moving or rotating? I wrote some example code to demonstrate this.
Object that i want to draw:
[public class Object { private int xPos; private int yPos; private int width; private int height; float xDistance = 0f; float yDistance = 0f; double angleToTurn = 0.0;
I am trying to make a simple platformer game in Java. When I try to move the character I made it only moves over then immediately back
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent; public class UCC { private int xLoc; private int yLoc; private int xSpeed; private int ySpeed; private double gravity; private int size;
I am trying to alternate the numbers of two Sequences. Right now getting an infinite loop. Here is my method.
public ArrayList<Integer> merge (Sequence other) { for (int i =0; i < other.values.size(); i++) { if (i%2==0) { for (int j =0; j < values.size(); j++) {
I use Eclipse (kepler version, with JDK 7) on MacBook Pro (Lion).I want to overwrite a line printed on my console. I used "" for that. I was expecting the cursor to go to the beginning of the line. Instead, it is going to the next line.
I've been at this for a while and I would like to make the Camera in my game follow the player and I know the way to do this would be to move the map and not the player. How would I do this if my map is rendered from a text file using for loops. Here is my code for the map.
package Game; import java.awt.Graphics; import java.io.BufferedReader; import java.io.FileReader; import java.io.IOException; public class Map {
I just have one problem with a "car" program in java. The objective is to move the car in the direction it is facing. Moving forward in the normal position (when the angle is zero) means moving in the x-axis. Choosing to turn the car function (for example: 90 ) and then using the forward function should move up or down the car in the y-axis. However the y-axis is not working.
I'm trying to understand and learn Java for GUI but I'm stacked around a project. I had done some other "test app" but on this, I can't figure out what I had done. I can't move my circle around the panel.... Where I had made some errors?
Main class package main; // imports import javax.swing.JFrame; import java.awt.Dimension; public class Main { public static final int WIDTH = 320; public static final int HEIGHT = 240; public static final int SCALE = 2;
Basically I have a program that paints a simple object image. There are 5 of these objects altogether and different classes and methods have been set up to do this and this works correctly. The program currently also asks the user if they would like to change the colour of this object shape, and which shape they would like to change (user inputs a number 1-5) then the program will change the colour of this shape.
But the new task is for the user to input a number (1-5) to which shape they would like to MOVE position of. Hhow this would be done? Would there need to be different methods for changePositionX, changePositionY? The user needs to input the X and Y co ordinates and then this will move the selected shape to its NEW position in the current JFRAME.
Why does my program write that i have problem in Timer?
public class Ball extends JPanel implements ActionListener { Timer timer = new Timer (3, this); int x = 0, y = 0, aX = 2, aY = 2; public void PaintComponent(Graphics g){ Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
I was following a tutorial on how to make a game when i suddenly got an error concerning moving tiles. i get this error when i tried to use a and d to move:
Exception in thread "Display" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 48600 at com.cherno.graphics.Screen.render(Screen.java:44) at com.cherno.Game.render(Game.java:124) at com.cherno.Game.run(Game.java:87) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)
I do not get the error while using w or s but the tiles are still not moving when pressing them.
I can't find any resource on the net about a simple Java code just to move a gif image left or right. I've already accomplished the up, down, and center and they're working fine, thus, I'm still struggling with moving the image left or right. Here's the code.
public class MoveIt extends Applet implements ActionListener { private Image cup; private Panel keypad; public int top = 10; public int left = 10;
[Code] ....
I remember in Visual BASIC it's easily achieved by NameOfImage.left = NameOfImage.left - 10 to move left and NameOfImage.left = NameOfImage.left + 10.
I'm currently taking a computer science class but the class is moving extremely slow and I'm not learning much, so I've started to program on my own. The most recent project I've done is a tic tac toe game, and I'm looking for something else to do now. I can do with an increased difficulty from this project, but not extremely difficult.
So I've been working on a music player in android studio and I've created two java classes. One for Main Start Screen(StartScreen.Java) and one for the main player (player.Java). I have an onClicl event associated with a button as shown below.
public void onclick(View view) { Intent detailIntent = new Intent(this, main_player.class); startActivity(detailIntent); }
The code for the second Java Class is as below. There is nothing in the java class as for now.
package com.example.musicplayer.app; import android.app.Activity; import android.os.Bundle; public class main_player extends Activity { protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
[Code] .....
Where is the actual mistake because the app works fine until i click the button that is suppose to take me to the main player screen?
I am just trying to move a rectangle in a diagonal line. When the applet pops up, the rectangle is there but doesn't move. If I drag the sides of the applet to make it bigger or smaller the rectangle will redraw itself and move, but I want it to move without touching the window.
I am trying to only allow the user to input numbers. But I need to enter a number twice before it moves to the next line statement and also skips a line when i enter th number a second time.
How can I go around fixing this.
My code for this is
case 1: do{ Event event = new Event(); out.println("Please Enter the name."); event.setEvent(input.next()); input.nextLine();
I have a class that works only when in the default package. If I move the class to a package I receive UnsatisfiedLinkError.
This is the class in the default package(this works fine):
[code] public class CsharpConsumer { private native int reigsterAssemblyHandler(String str); public CsharpConsumer() { String dir = System.getProperty("user.dir"); System.load(dir+"dllscardJNICsharpBridge.dll"); int reigsterAssemblyHandler = reigsterAssemblyHandler(dir+"dllscard"); } } [/code]
If at the top of this class I add "package DLLUtils;"
the error is "Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError:
We are making a tic tac toe game for my CS120 class and I am having trouble figuring out how to make our X's and O's. Is there a way to make shapes besides making two lines for an X and an oval with a white smaller oval inside to make an O? We have only learned the basics so far in class (i.e. events, inheritance, client-supplier, etc.)
These are our instructions:
Write a controller that controls the game. There is one human player (the X player) and the computer player (the O player). The name of the class must be TicTacToeController. In a sense, the controller is the game since the controller will 1) create a TicTacToeModel 2) create a TicTacToeView and 3) create a TicTacToeButton (you must write this class following the design pattern covered in class lectures), a label, and text field such that when the button is pushed, the player moves into the cell selected by the text field. After every player move, the computer moves into a randomly selected empty cell. When the game is over, a text message must be displayed somewhere on the screen the gives the status of the game. While you are free to change the appearance of the controller, the basic elements must be provided (a view of the game, a button, and a text field to enter the cell). A sample screenshot is displayed below.And this is the code i have thus far:
[import java.awt.*; import javax.swing.JFrame; public class TicTacToeView extends Rectangle public TicTacToeView(int x, int y, int w, int h) { super(50,60,w,h); this.setBackground(Color.red); JFrame win = new JFrame("Tic Tac Toe"); win.setBounds(10,10,w+100, h+100); win.setLayout(null); win.setVisible(true); win.setBackground(Color.gray);
I have been following a 2d side scroller tutorial in java and have got the basics working, I changed the code a bit to make it so that the tiles and background are always moving, this worked as i intended.Within the character class:
if (speedX < 0) { centerX += speedX; } if (speedX == 0 || speedX < 0) { bg1.setSpeedX(0); bg2.setSpeedX(0);
[code]....
I wanted a way to make it so that if the character moves left, the tiles + background move slower. I am having issues with variable scope and setters/getters. Within the main game class, I have the code:
case KeyEvent.VK_LEFT: character.moveLeft(); character.setMovingLeft(true); break;
How can i include an if statement within the tile class that reads whether the character is moving left (determined from a keyPressed event in the main game class) and adjusts the speed of the tiles accordingly?I want to write something to the effect of:
try to make a game in this code i am trying to make the basics i have made a mouse it should move the game code is
import java.applet.Applet; import java.awt.*; public class Game extends gameLoop { public void init() { setSize( 854 , 480); Thread th = new Thread (this);
