Method Detail

setVector

void setVector(Vector newVector)

This method is to be used to pass a Vector to a MovingBody. The Vector controls the motion of the MovingBody.

Parameters:

newVector - The Vector to pass to the MovingBody.

getVector

Vector getVector()

This method is to be used to obtain a Vector from a MovingBody. It can tell you what motion the MovingBody had.

Returns:

A Vector.

update

void update()

Called frequently to update the body's position on the screen.
