Create an Image Sequence Using Classes

NatyG4

What I'm trying to accomplish looks something like this. However, after trying out several methods there's always something that goes wrong and I just can't figure it out.

PImage happiness;
PImage sorrow;
int x = 250;
int y = 250;

Happiness happy1;
Sorrow sorrow1;

void setup(){
   size(500,500);
   smooth();
   happiness = loadImage ("happiness0.png");
   sorrow = loadImage ("sorrow1.png");

   createMask();
}

void draw (){
  happy1.display();
  sorrow1.display();
  happy1.godname();
  sorrow1.godname();
}

void createMask() {
  happy1 = new Happiness (happiness, x, y);
  sorrow1 = new Sorrow (sorrow, x , y);


}

//Base Class

  abstract class Masks {
  PImage masksImage;
  PVector center;
  PFont font;

  Masks(PImage _image, int x, int y) {
     masksImage = _image;
     center = new PVector (20, 5);
  }

  void display () {
    image(masksImage, center.x, center.y);
  }

  abstract void godname(); {
      font = loadFont("Algerian-20.vlw");
  }

}

//Class 1

  class Happiness extends Masks {
  Happiness(PImage image, int x, int y) {
    super (image, x, y);
  }

  void godname () {
   if (mousePressed == true) {
    textFont(font);
    fill(0);
    text("Eudaemonia", 195, 150);
   }  else {
      fill (#f3f3f4);  
    }
  }
}

There are many logical problems in your classes!
But main offender is that you're not storing all the parameters passed to the constructors!

Thanks for the reply. This is attempt #1 which still isn't working out:

PImage happiness;
PImage sorrow;
int x = 250;
int y = 250;
Masks [] masks = new Masks[10];

Happiness happy1;
Sorrow sorrow1;

void setup(){
   size(500,500);
   smooth();
   happiness = loadImage ("happiness0.png");
   sorrow = loadImage ("sorrow1.png");

   createMask();

   for (int i = 0; i < masks.length; i ++) {
     masks[i] = new Masks();
   }
}

void draw (){
 for (int i = 0; i < masks.length; i++) {
  happy1.display();
  sorrow1.display();
  happy1.godname();
  sorrow1.godname();
  }
}

void createMask() {
  happy1 = new Happiness (happiness, x, y);
  sorrow1 = new Sorrow (sorrow, x , y); 
}

//Base Class
abstract class Masks {
  PImage [] masksImage = new PImage[maxImages];
  PVector center;
  PFont font;
  int maxImages = 2;
  int imageIndex = 0;

  Masks(int x, int y) {
    center = new PVector (20, 5);

     for (int i = 0; i < maskImage.length; i ++) {
       maskImage[i] = loadImage( "mask" + i + ".png");
     }
  }

  void display () {
    image(masksImage[imageIndex], center.x, center.y);
  }

  void next () {
    imageIndex = (imageIndex + 1) % masksImage.length;
  }

  abstract void godname(); {
      font = loadFont("Algerian-20.vlw");
  }    
}

//Class 1
class Happiness extends Masks {
  Happiness(PImage image, int x, int y) {
    super (image, x, y);
  }

  void godname () {
   if (mousePressed == true) {
    textFont(font);
    fill(0);
    text("Eudaemonia", 195, 150);
   }  else {
      fill (#f3f3f4);  
    }
  }

  void next () {
  }
}
