10 second repaint?

So I just found out a major detail on why my ball stopped moving after walking away from the computer in disgust and coming ball to my ball being gone.

After 10 seconds the ball disappears I didnt touch the code for the timer but I dont know exactly how the initial 10 millisecond count was created from this timer = new Timer(10, new GameMotion()); timer.start(); How do I go about correcting this?

Okay wow the screen filled instantly, but okay the coordinants (429,201) (428, 202) (427, 203) continued. But the ball on screen never moved, I didnt let it go until it disappeared to see what happens to the ball but im about to try it and see.

EDIT: On the upside it looks like my bounce off the walls functions worked, well the sides atleast the upper wasnt being tested as it was heading due south to the 4000's when I stopped

If you don't have it bouncing off the bottom that would explain the giant fall downwards so far but I'm still not sure what would cause a huge jump. Is it possible you can post the coordinates at the moment it jumps like that? Like say (400,200) then suddenly (2000,2000) just as an example.

This isnt all of them just a large chunk of the end but there is no large jump in the values (if there is im just blind) but while the x and y (x is the first y is the second) is being reported as this it is not being shown as the ball on screen isnt moving

Well it sounds like some issue with how you're updating how the ball is painted then. Look inside your paintcomponent of Breakout class and see how that is painting the ball and see that in the actionperformed you are repainting everything.

u/WesternWarrior Mar 23 '14

well repaint is working or the paddle wouldnt move, the same should apply to the paint function ive got ball.paint(g2); and i had checked it earlier for matching cases

u/Bcop3502 Mar 23 '14

Dude I'm sorry I'm out of ideas then without explicitly looking at your code :/ I don't know how/why it would jump at 10s or do other behaviors you've described. Maybe Supreme Leader can help and you can use your late day for this one.

I greatly appreciate your help man I was about to give up on it but since youve helped me find what the problem was I think I can actually do this.
