Model your world. Try this:
public class GameObject {
public float x,y;
public Bitmap bmp;
}
public class Tank extends GameObject {
// do tank stuff
}
public class Bullet extends GameObject {
// do bullet stuff
}
See where I'm going there? Then in your main game class you just keep
a list of the gameobjects, run through and update them. Check out
this article I wrote when I was doing light racer 3d -
http://www.rbgrn.net/content/215-light-racer-3d-development-journal
Scroll down on that page to the end where all of the book pages are
linked. Read through the first few. I show how games like that are
designed on the inside so you can use that information to do yours.
