Oh so that's why I can't drag my actors in my "Super Mario bros." scenario!

Yup ;-)

This is awesome! The code I'd need to make a better platform... :)

Hi, I would like to have this Wanderer effect in my Tossing scenario that using SmoothMover & Vector class. Which methods should I override?

mjrb4 writes (on 2009-8-8):

You just need to download the source and put the wanderer class in your scenario so it's a superclass of whatever you want to "wander." So if you put it in your project and then do something like:

public class Ball extends Wanderer

and then edit wanderer to extend whatever Ball was previously extending, it should work. (Obviously replace ball with whatever actor it is you want to wander outside the world!)

I just modified SmoothMoverWithGravity class to extends Wanderer class, and hey! it works perfectly! :D
Thanks alot, Michael !

The collision doesn't work properly! how do I solve that problem?

limefortheworld writes (on 2009-8-18):

never mind... Maybe one can override the collision codes (get the code at the source code from some old version of greenfoot)

mjrb4 writes (on 2009-8-18):

Sorry, I haven't had a chance to test this out yet! Is it just with actors that extend the Wanderer class? I thought it worked ok for me when I tested it... I'll have another look at some point.

I finally wrote codes to override collision offscreen! :D :D :D :D :D :D (one now can use the getOneIntersectingObject and other similar methods)
