Boundary on movement basket

Question

My basket can only move 1 place to the right and only 1 place to the left somehow. It worked perfectly before.

Answer 1

You have created multiple baskets, which causes the problems.

Remove lines 19, 81,82 and 83 in DrawingPanel.java (the lines that created more than one basket).

Answer 2

Send me the complete Ecplise project folder in a zip-file, so I can have a look.

Answer 3

Other suggestions if basket is not moving:

Does the print-statement System.out.println(...) in the keyPressed() eventhandler print the values in the Console? Add similar print-statements to the left() and right() methods of DrawingPanel to see if they work properly, eg:

System.out.println("left");

Check the paintComponent() method. Are if-statements properly closed? (Format the code with right-click > Source > Format) Sometimes the for-loop which draws the gameElements ends-up inside one of the if-statements...

Also, double-check you did all the step as outlined under "Moving basket" in the assignment.
