[computerfreak.7]

so im trying to make a game for school that i have to have done by friday at the max

my source for the main class is

//shooter game
//main class

import javax.swing.*;              //frame
import java.awt.*;                //color
import java.util.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class Shooter extends JFrame implements KeyListener{
		Image img;
		Graphics dbi;
		
		boolean u,d,w,s;
		int S,E;
		
	    Player p1=new Player(5,150,10,50,Color.RED,"LEFT.gif");
	    Player p2=new Player(585,150,10,50,Color.GREEN,"RIGHT.gif");
	    ArrayList<Bullets>b=new ArrayList<Bullets>();
	
	public Shooter () {
		setTitle("Shooter");
		setSize(600,400);
		setResizable(false);
		setBackground(Color.BLACK);
		setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
		addKeyListener(this);
		u=d=w=s=false;
		S=E=0;
		
		setVisible(true);
	}
	
	public void paint(Graphics g){
		img=createImage(getWidth(),getHeight());
		dbi=img.getGraphics();
		
		paintComponent(dbi);
		g.drawImage(img,0,0,this);
		repaint();
	}
	public void paintComponent(Graphics g){
		if(p1.health>0&&p2.health>0){
			for(Bullets b1:b){
				b1.draw(g);
			}
			update();
		}
		else{
			if(p1.health<=0){
				g.setColor(p2.col);
				g.drawString("PLAYER 2 WINS!",250,190);
			}
			else{g.setColor(p1.col);
				g.drawString("PLAYER 1 WINS!",250,190);
				
			}
		}
		p1.draw(g);
		p2.draw(g);
		
	}
	public void update(){
		if(w&&p1.y>24)p1.moveUp();
		if(s&&p1.y<347)p1.moveDown();
		if(u&&p2.y>24)p2.moveUp();
		if(d&&p2.y<347)p2.moveDown();
		if(E==1){
			Bullets add=p2.getBull();
			add.xVel=-3;
			b.add(add);
			E++;
			E++;
		}
		if(S==1){
			Bullets add=p1.getBull();
			add.xVel=3;
		}
		for(int x=0;x<b.size();x++){
			b.get(x).move();
			if(b.get(x).rect.intersects(p1.rect)&&b.get(x).xVel<0){
				p1.health--;
				b.remove(x);
				x--;
				continue;
			}
			if(b.get(x).rect.intersects(p2.rect)&&b.get(x).xVel<0){
				p2.health--;
				b.remove(x);
				x--;
				continue;
			}
			
			
		}
	}
	public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e){}

	public static void main(String[]beans){
		KeyListener a=new Shooter ();
	}
}

i get the error
cannot find symbol constructor Player(int,int,int,intjava.awt.Color.lang.String
for lines 16 and 17

which are

Player p1=new Player(5,150,10,50,Color.RED,"LEFT.gif");
	    Player p2=new Player(585,150,10,50,Color.GREEN,"RIGHT.gif");

any help would be muchly appreciated

Class Player, wherever it's declared needs to have a constructor having the signature

public Player(int, int, int, int, java.awt.Color, lang.String){
}

[musthafa.aj]

in Player class define constructor as you need...

you can define more than one constructor also..

class name and constructor name should be same...

[computerfreak.7]

my player class is this what should change/add to fix the the error in other post

//shooter game
//player class
import java.awt.*;

public class Player{
	int x,y;                   
	int height,width;          
	int health;			       
	Image img;				   
	Rectangle rect;            
	Color col;
	
	
	public Player(){           
		x=y=height=width=0;
		img=null;
		col=Color.WHITE;
		health=10;
		rect=new Rectangle(x,y,width,height);
		
	}
	public Player(int x,int y){       
		this.x=x;
		this.y=y;
		height=width=0;
		col=Color.WHITE;
		img=null;
		health=10;
		rect=new Rectangle(x,y,width,height);
		
	}
	public Player(int x, int y,int ht,int wd){       
		this.x=x;
		this.y=y;
		height=ht;
		width=wd;
		img=null;
		col=Color.WHITE;		
		health=10;
		rect=new Rectangle(x,y,width,height);
		
	}
	public Player(int x, int y,int ht,int wd, String s){       
		this.x=x;
		this.y=y;
		height=ht;
		width=wd;
		col=Color.WHITE;
		health=10;
		img=Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(s);
		rect=new Rectangle(x,y,width,height);
		
		
	}
	
	public void draw(Graphics g){
		g.drawImage(img,x,y,null);
	}   
	public void setImage(String s){
		img=Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(s);
	}        
	public void moveUp() {
		y-=3;
		rect.setLocation(x,y);
	}                               
	public void moveDown(){    					
		y+=3;
		rect.setLocation(x,y);
		
	}  	
	public Bullets getBull(){
		return new Bullets(x+8,y+23,3,3,col);
	}					
}

[musthafa.aj]

here the constructor you called with 6 parameters..

Player p1=new Player(5,150,10,50,Color.RED,"LEFT.gif");

but in your code no matching arguments with 6 parameters..

14.public Player(){ 

22.public Player(int x,int y){      

	
32. public Player(int x, int y,int ht,int wd){       


43.public Player(int x, int y,int ht,int wd, String s){

[computerfreak.7]

i added

public Player(int x,int y,int wd,int ht,Color c,String s){       
		this.x=x;
		this.y=y;
		height=ht;
		width=wd;
		col=c;
		health=10;
		img=Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(s);
		rect=new Rectangle(x,y,width,height);
		
		
	}

but im still getting the same error

[musthafa.aj]

i added

public Player(int x,int y,int wd,int ht,Color c,String s){       
		this.x=x;
		this.y=y;
		height=ht;
		width=wd;
		col=c;
		health=10;
		img=Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(s);
		rect=new Rectangle(x,y,width,height);
		
		
	}

but im still getting the same error

add like this..

Player p1=new Player(5,150,10,50,new Color(0,0,0,0),"LEFT.gif");

change value untill you get decided color..like new Color(25,25,15,15)..etc..

[computerfreak.7]

that didnt work either i changed it to

Player p1=new Player(5,150,10,50,new Color(25,25,20,15),"LEFT.gif");
	    Player p2=new Player(585,150,10,50,new Color(25,10,15,15),"RIGHT.gif");

another problem im having is when i run it my window is clear no background at all

[musthafa.aj]

then post your error which thrown by compiler...

except bullet class i ran it ...

it outputs on window with text Play win!!

[computerfreak.7]

i still get the same error the build out put says

--------------------Configuration: shooter - JDK version 1.6.0_18 <Default> - <Default>--------------------

2 errors

Process completed.

[musthafa.aj]

are these two class in the same directory..

reason for such an error is

When a programmer do not Imported the class name.

check you imported or not this line

import package.Player

i dont know what was happening but i recopied the code into a different workspace and now i have no errors thank you so much
