Hi, so I am replicating the game ’ Stack’ on processing. I was wondering if anyone knew how to make the shapes stack on top of each other when the mouse is clicked. When the mouse is clicked, the rectangle that is moving stops and then on top of that another rectangle appears and this one moves.
Please let me know as soon as you can
Thanks!
That a lot to help you with. What’s the problem? Working out the part of the rectangle that overlaps? Drawing rectangles in 3D? Changing game states? Animating things?
It’s not exactly clear what you’re having trouble with, because…
YOU HAVEN’T SHARED ANY OF YOUR CODE WITH US.
To even START trying to help you with a demonstration, I have NOTHING to work with. I literally have to start coding THE WHOLE GAME FROM SCRATCH to START helping you. That is a TON of work, and way more effort than I -and I imagine anyone else - is willing to put in.
So.
POST. YOUR. CODE!
Please post a link so we can see it
Although this is 3D, it might be easier for you to do in 2D first.
Also not with diagonally flying rects but with straight flying rectangles, from left and top

If you put it into the Processing editor (PDE) then you get a long list of error messages.
You can start by going through one at a time and fixing them. Don’t define the start variable twice. Don’t name a variable “line 1” – it has to be a single word, like line1 or line_1. Semicolons are missing. Look at each error in the errors tab, click to go to that line, and fix the problem. If you get stuck on how to fix a problem, ask for help here…
But before you do any of that, add a } on the line before void startbutton() {. Without it you get many, many errors that aren’t really errors.
Yes this is the game that i’m trying to replicate
