I used to run my program as an applet, and it worked fine then, but I have decided to try to make it run in a JFrame. I recently had a problem with overriding, but I think I finally have that problem solved. This is a game I have been working on recently, its basically a recreation of Flappy Bird. I don't intend to sell my finished version, as I believe that the credit does not belong to me. Right now I am looking to make a pipe go across the screen and I plan on making a max of 3 sets of pipes on the screen at any given time.
FIXED Error with frame not opening New error: Undesired output
Here is my main class (Game)
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;
import javax.swing.Timer;
public class Game {
Pipes panel = new Pipes();
public Game() {
JFrame f = new JFrame();
f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
f.add(panel);
f.setTitle("Pipe Game");
f.pack();
f.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
f.setVisible(true);
f.setResizable(false);
Timer timer = new Timer(10, new ActionListener() {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
panel.move();
panel.repaint();
}
});
timer.start();
}
public static void main(String args[]) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
new Game();
}
});
}
}
And here is my class that draws (Pipes)
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
public class Pipes extends JPanel {
//Declare and initialiaze variables
int height = setHeight();
int x1 = 754; //xVal start
int x2 = 75; //pipe width
int y1 = -1; //yVal start
int y2; //pipe height
int vel; //pipe velocity
int gap = 130; //gap height
@Override
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
y2 = height;
g.clearRect(0,0,750,500); //Clear screen
g.drawRect(x1,y1,x2,y2); //Draw part 1
g.drawRect(x1-3,y2-1,x2+6,25); //Draw part 2
g.drawRect(x1-3,y2+25+gap,x2+6,25); //Draw part 3
g.drawRect(x1,y2+25+gap+25,x2,500-y2-49-gap); //Draw part 4
}
public void move() {
x1--;
}
public int getY() {
return y2+25;
}
public int getX() {
return x1-3;
}
public int setHeight() {
int num = (int)(9*Math.random() + 1);
int val = 0;
if (num == 9)
{
val = 295;
}
else if (num == 8)
{
val = 246;
}
else if (num == 7)
{
val = 216;
}
else if (num == 6)
{
val = 185;
}
else if (num == 5)
{
val = 156;
}
else if (num == 4)
{
val = 125;
}
else if (num == 3)
{
val = 96;
}
else if (num == 2)
{
val = 66;
}
else
{
val = 25;
}
return val;
}
