Hello,

I am currently working on a video game using Processing, yet I've encountered a few errors which seem minor but I can't really figure out. I made my game like a 2D scroll screen where the character (a panda) moves through the screen and collects things, and avoids things.
I made each thing it collects its own Class, and i implemented this into my code. Yet for some reason the panda won't pick up items if it's positioning is ideal (like so the panda runs straight through the item).

Here is the code I have so far:

float page = 1; //title page
float x = 65;
float y = 260; // position of panda
float Jspeed = .9; //jumping variable
float backgroundx = 0; //background speed
float a;
float shake; //movement

int lives = 3;
int score = 0;

PImage panda;
PImage heart;
PImage fullbackground;
PImage fullbackground2;
PImage titlepage;
PImage title2;
//PImage platform;
//PImage platform2;
PImage duckimg;
PImage onigri;
PImage strawberryimg;
PImage failimg;
PImage winimg;
PImage beartrapimg;
PFont Herculanum;
int timer = 100;

Duck d1;
Duck d2;
Duck d3;
Duck d4;

I took out some of the other classes and stuff just now and left only the one Duck.. since the answer to this question being applied to just this one class will help me for everything else as well.

Thanks for any help!
     

Well the panda moves throughout the window fine, given its position, but it doesn't collect the duck. So i thought something was wrong with the duck class, or any other class that i would declare as an item.

Yeah, you're right, JR, and thanks. So far, I've just been teaching this to myself, and it's kind of different than what I'm used to (java, not javascript), but I started going over my code again, and I'm implementing arrays for each set of items that I've added in.
