can you guys write me a block of code that searches through the array and puts what climber reached the top of the mountain first? 

i also need to make a function where if the mouse presses on one of the climbers the color of that climber changes....this one is not that important though. 

well here is my code and i hope you guys can help me as i will really appreciate it.

*** Press the space bar to move the characters up the mountain at various speeds and press R to reset the program

i love this site btw XD

here is the code: 

2. Circles[] circles = new Circles[255];
3. 
   
4. void setup() {
5.   size(800,600);
6.   for(int i = 0; i < circles.length; i++) {
7.     circles[i] = new Circles(color(random(255),random(255),random(255)), random(800), 
8.     random(600), random(25), random(25),random(9),random(9));
9.   }
10. }
11. 
    
12. void draw() {
13.   background(255);
14.     for(int i = 0; i < circles.length; i++) {
15.     circles[i].display();
16.     circles[i].move();
17.   }
18. } 

2. class Circles {
3.   float xsize;
4.   float ysize;
5.   float xpos;
6.   float ypos;
7.   float xspeed;
8.   float yspeed;
9.   color c;
10. 
    
11.   Circles(color tempC, float tempxpos, float tempypos, float tempxsize, float tempysize, float tempxspeed, float tempyspeed) {
12.     xpos = tempxpos;
13.     ypos = tempypos;
14.     xsize = tempxsize;
15.     ysize = tempxsize;
16.     xspeed = tempxspeed;
17.     yspeed = tempyspeed;
18.     c = tempC;
19.   }
20. 
    
21.   void display() {
22.     fill(c);
23.     ellipse(xpos, ypos, xsize, ysize);
24.   }
25.   void move() {
26.     xpos = xpos + xspeed;
27.     ypos = ypos + yspeed;
28. 
    
29.     if (xpos >= width || xpos <=0) {
30.       xspeed *= -1;
31.     }
32.     if (ypos >= width || ypos <= 0) {
33.       yspeed *=-1;
34.     }
35.   }
36. }

i dont understand the example collision provided by processing program here is the code from processing example bouncy bubbles : 

2. void collide() {
3.     for (int i = id + 1; i < numBalls; i++) {
4.       float dx = others[i].x - x;
5.       float dy = others[i].y - y;
6.       float distance = sqrt(dx*dx + dy*dy);
7.       float minDist = others[i].diameter/2 + diameter/2;
8.       if (distance < minDist) { 
9.         float angle = atan2(dy, dx);
10.         float targetX = x + cos(angle) * minDist;
11.         float targetY = y + sin(angle) * minDist;
12.         float ax = (targetX - others[i].x) * spring;
13.         float ay = (targetY - others[i].y) * spring;
14.         vx -= ax;
15.         vy -= ay;
16.         others[i].vx += ax;
17.         others[i].vy += ay;
18.       }
19.     }   
20.   }

can someone please explain to me how i can implement this into my program. It doesn't have to be the best way just the simplest way.

thanks :)

2. class H20 {
3.   color c;
4.   float xpos = width/2;
5.   float ypos = height/2;
6.   float xspeed =5;
7.   float yspeed =5;
8. 
   
9.   H20() {
10.     c = color(255);   
11.     xpos = width/2;   
12.     ypos = height/2;   
13.     xspeed = 1;
14.   }
15. 
    
16.   void display() {
17.     pushMatrix();
18.     lights();   
19.     translate(xpos,ypos, 50);
20.     noStroke();
21.     fill(255, 100, 100);    
22.     sphere(50);
23.     popMatrix();
24. 
    
25.     pushMatrix();
26.     lights();      
27.     translate(xpos+40, ypos-35, 50);
28.     noStroke();
29.     fill(90);
30.     sphere(35);
31.     popMatrix();
32. 
    
33.     pushMatrix();
34.     translate(xpos-40, ypos-35, 50);
35.     noStroke();
36.     fill(90);
37.     sphere(35);
38.     popMatrix();
39.   }
40.   void move() {
41.     xpos = xpos + xspeed;
42.     ypos = ypos + yspeed;
43.     if(xpos > width-100 || xpos <=100) {
44.      xspeed=xspeed*-1;
45.     }
46.     if(ypos > height-100 || ypos <= 100) {
47.      yspeed=yspeed*-1;
48.     }
49.   }
50. }

please i need to get my "molecule" to spin

xD

how can i just display this? all i want to do is for the numbers to come up on the screen

can someone create an object for me that will number itself and create a rectangle of a specified value? 

i have no idea where to start....

for example:

1. void setup() {
2. size(800,600);
3. }
4. int x = width/2;
5. int y = height/2;
6. void draw() {
7.  ellipse(x,y,50,50);
8. }

the ellipse will not show up in the middle of the screen for me but if i do :

the ellipse shows up in the middle of the screen....

whyyy??

my question is can i just take this image and set it as background for the most part and adding collision areas for the houses and such since they are not going to move?

or do i have to crop each house out and place them individually?

my first map will be pallet town and it will be in its own class. 

thanks for reading my post, looking forward to responses.

the image background is white.

the background color is green.

how can i get it so the background of the image is transparent? 

i can only get my character to look as though i am moving in one direction can someone please help.

if someone can code out or just plain out give me hints or a direction to move in, so i can have 3 different images for up down left and right directions that would be insanely awesome. 

oh btw i coded this by cutting out images i needed with gimp and labeling them player 0-2;

if someone can show me how to crop the images out from the sprite sheet with the processing language that would be cool too : )

my code is :

sprite sheet:

thanks any help/suggestions will be very much appreciated!
