number fall

[DevelopmentTeam]

Its simple, you either use a single big image that you can repeat or small tiles.

We usually go with single image when there is a scenery and cannot be used a tile, In this case, we draw the image first at x position 0 and then -1 and then -2 and repeat the same image to fill the screen.

When you use tiles it the same way you have to move.

hi back to preveious problm.......well now i made an array to hold chars...but m getting typical output ..Ljava.lang.String;@fe37eeb0

g.drawString(""+newArray, 100,200, Graphics.TOP|Graphics.LEFT);

This line cannot draw the entire string. You have to draw the characters each separately in a for loop.

Code: Select all

for(int i = 0; i < newArray.length; i++) {
    g.drawString(""+newArray[i], 100,200, Graphics.TOP|Graphics.LEFT);[/b]
}


I think you are confusing with the character and string in this case. We still don't have a clue if you are trying to make characters fall or string.
