problem about processing

[forLoopMan]

I have studying processing for 1 month. I would like to make a shooting game .When I run the program and shot the fire, the fire I shot recently will stay in the original place. 

When the enemy passes where I once l, they die automatically without pressing the shooting key ( 'c' || 'C').

I am confuesd with this problem two days long!Hope anyone can answer my question. Thank you!

[Sensei]

You declared fire parameters at the beginning as arrays:

float[] fireX= new float[totalFireNum];
float[] fireY = new float[totalFireNum];
int fireSpeed = 15;
float[]fireLeft = new float[ totalFireNum];
float[]fireRight = new float[ totalFireNum];
float[]fireTop = new float[ totalFireNum];
float[]fireBottom = new float[ totalFireNum]; 

("fire" is inappropriate name. You rather meant "missile".. ?)
but later you're treating them as regular scalar variables...

e.g.

	image(fireShape, fireX, fireY, fireW, fireH);    
        fireX = fireX+fireSpeed;
	
        fireRight = fireX + fireW;
        fireLeft = fireX;
        fireTop = fireY;
        fireBottom = fireY+fireH;
	

(addition of float/integer to array pointer (address) ?!)

 

You should make loop going through entire list of missiles, display them one by one, and change their positions independently, incrementing/changing array fields..
