Setting Up the Game Environment: Creating Fixed Sprite Classes Using the Actor Superclass - Beginning Java 8 Games Development - page 455

Let's use the exact same work process, and add a PropV object into the scene, so
that we can see how this tile image can be flipped and mirrored around the X axis, to
create even more complex seamless tileable constructs for your Java 8 game develop-
ment. Let's use the same naming convention, and name this new PropV object iPV0 .
Your new Java instantiation statement, which can be seen in Figure 14-24 , should look
like the following line of Java code:
iPV0 = new PropV ("M150 0 L75 200 L225 200 Z", 0, 0, iP0 );
The next logical step to adding a fixed sprite prop, is to add the ImageView Node
object for this iPV0 PropV object into the Scene Graph root StackPane object. This is
accomplished using the .getChildren().add() method chain, which references the
spriteFrame ImageView object, which lives inside of the iPV0 PropV object, using
dot notation. This can be accomplished by using the following Java programming state-
ment, which is also shown in Figure 14-24 :
root .getChildren().add( iPV0.spriteFrame );
Finally, we will use the .addCurrentCast() method, that we created in Chapter 10 ,
to add this iPV0 object to the CURRENT_CAST List<Actor> ArrayList object, inside
of the castDirector CastingDirector object, using the following line of Java code, which
is also shown at the very bottom of Figure 14-24 :
castDirector .addCurrentCast( iPV0 );
