I don't understand why when I collide into my objects my character freezes. Such as if I collide into collision() I can go left and right but, not up and if I collide into collision2() I freeze in all places but, if I collide into the bounds I made I can still go in all directions without problems. The xa and ya are still being set to 0.
I have made a "Pong" game and how to check if the ball has hit the top or the bottom of a paddle, however I do know how to check if it has hit the left or right side:
I use eclipse as my IDE. I have decided to make my own video game and somebody had sent me a class that could be used for collision detection. The problem with the collision detection class was that it made a box around an object and if something else had touched the object, the collision detection would work. My problem with this class is what happens when i want to use circles? I cant have a box drawn around it. Then it wouldn't work as i would want. Is there a pixel perfect collision detection class out there I can use? It'll be useful in my journey to become successful in computer science! By the way this is in the java language.
I'm working on a space invaders game and I'm having problems with collision detection. My main issue is I'm having problems getting what the y value of the "missile" is as it goes up towards the top of the game. I have tried for many hours and tried to look at other people's space invaders game in an attempt to figure out how to figure out my problem. Also I'm not sure if I have the code for my collision detection in the correct spot. Right now I have the code in the keyPressed method. Below is the code for the main and missle classes ...
I have already tried every possible way for removing this bug but all failed. The problem is that sometimes my player passes through the map tiles, i mean, the algorithm is like -- if not colliding, move in required direction; else if colliding, move in opposite direction. But sometimes the second condition fails i dont understand why.
This code is for a tic tac toe game. I have a action listener set up and if the user entered a move that would win the game of tic tac toe it would call on a restart() method to clear the board, but every time some one wins the GUI freezes.
class ListenerCA implements ActionListener { public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) { Board.clear(); if (turn == 0) { start.answer = "CA";
[Code] .....
The code below this is the normal execution flow.
static void start_game(String board[][]){ final int one = 1; final int two = 2; int x = 0; play game = new play();
[Code] .....
In the above code gui == true always, I just kept an option if i ever wanted to run the program in console. The code below is the restart method.
I have a console application. One thread allows a user to directly input into a console. Another thread listens on a tcp port, takes input, processes it, and then writes it to the console. The work in different threads, but in tcp thread, one I call a method outside that thread that writes to console, it often gets stuck. here is a mockup of situation:
It often freezes on "Attempt 1". Before I used System.out there, I also tried console.writer() there but both freeze at that point often. Any situation where console or System.out.writeln freeze when working across threads and why it is occurring? It almost feels like one thread has locked the console so the others can't write to it.
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.
okay so far I have made a game with character that runs with constant velocity it jumps and ducks . I want the player to be dead on collision from a hurdle and then play a specific png, which shows the dying style . I am able to build collision detection but it passes from background I want it to collide and be dead on collision.
i have problem in what comes to jumping because in what i have now mario jumps with the key lsitener, key pressed up arrow and it jumps smooth but when im trying to make it fall down he appears immediatly at ground and it doesnt simulate the fall as it should be.
The other problem is that i dont really know how to detect collisions if there is a method that makes easier this proceso and how to make the map to continue and repeat so mario could continue walking,
I have some problem checking if a directed graph has a cycle or not. So I have a given rooted directed graph, and find if there at least one existing cycle.
For example, I have to input the Root Node, followed by a number of nodes, the nodes in the graph, number of edges, and the adjacency list representing the edges. Each entry in the adjacency list contains a pair of nodes. The ordering of the nodes in the pair represents the direction of the edge. An entry A, B means that there is an edge from A to B. Nodes in each pair is separated by a space. One input per line.
And the output should display whether the directed graph has a cycle or not.
Sample input:
A //Root Node 6 //Number of Nodes A //Nodes in Graph B C D E F 6 //Number of edges A B //Adjacency list representing the edges B C C D C F F E E B
Output: Cycle!
Graph Representation:
Based on the illustration above, the graph has one cycle. The cycle exists in nodes B, C, F and E.
So I'm making buttons for a game I'm making. The graphics work, at least to the extent that I don't have to fix them yet. However, click detection is a bit iffy. For example pressing where the black line is in the first picture below, triggers a response. Now obviously that point is not on the button. I have tested the buttons bounding box by drawing a rectangle around it, using it's getBounds() method (which is also used for click detection) and it draws a perfect rectangle around it. So then I tested the mouse click points and it turns out that even though the button is placed at y = 100, at the black line, the mouse point is also equal to 100... Now, why that is happening, especially because, if I place the button in the top left corner, the mouse detection correctly detects the top pixels and there is no offset...
I need to be able to detect IE 9, IE 10, IE 11 and the latest from Firefox and Chrome. The old method using the user-agent string is unreliable and not recommended. There is a different approach called, "Feature Detection". But I need to know what features to test to determine the browser. I can write it myself, or if there is a handy dandy API using feature detection already written that would be OK too.
Create an equals method that takes an object reference and returns true if the given object equals this object.
Hint: You'll need 'instanceof' and cast to a (Geocache)
So far I have:
public boolean equals(Object O){ if(O instanceof Geocache){ Geocache j=(Geocache) O; if (this.equals(j)) //I know this is wrong... but I can't figure it out return true; }
else return false; }
I think I have it correct up to the casting but I don't understand what I'm suppose to do with the this.equals(). Also I'm getting an error that I'm not returning a boolean... I get this all the time in other problems. I don't get why since I have to instances of returning booleans in this. "returns true if the given object equals this object" makes no sense to me. I assume the given object, in my case, is 'O'. What is 'this' object referring to?
I am new to Java and have read books, the Java docs, and searched the Internet for my problem to no avail. I have an Array of objects that contains strings. How can I get the object's strings to print in a list so that the user can select that object to manipulate its attributes? For example, the user can select "Guitar 1" from a list and manipulate its attributes like tuning it, playing it, etc. I have a class called Instruments and created 10 guitar objects.Here is the code:
Instrument [] guitar = new Instrument[10]; for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { guitar[0] = new Instrument("Guitar 1"); guitar[1] = new Instrument("Guitar 2"); guitar[2] = new Instrument("Guitar 3"); guitar[3] = new Instrument("Guitar 4"); guitar[4] = new Instrument("Guitar 5"); guitar[5] = new Instrument("Guitar 6");
Now lets say that I want to access a method 'addInterest()' that is in the 'SavingsAccount' class I would have to do: '((SavingsAccount)s).addInterest();'
The question I have is why do I have to cast 'b' to SavingsAccount? Isn't the actual object reference of 'b' already an instance of 'SavingsAccount' class? How does the 'BankAccount' affect the object itself? I'm really confused as to what class is truly getting instantiated and how BankAccount and SavingsAccount are both functioning to make the object 'b'.
I don't understand why the object reference variable 'a' cannot be recast from a thisA object reference to a thisB object reference.Is it the case that once a reference variable is linked to a particular object type then it cannot switch object types later on.I am facing the Java Associate Developer exam soon and I am just clearing up some issues in my head around object reference variable assignment,
class thisA {} class thisB extends thisA { String testString = "test";} public class CastQuestion2 { public static void main(String[] args) { thisA a = new thisA(); thisB b = new thisB();
