A Text at display

TextObject class

The TextObject will be used to display text on screen. Starting from a standard GameObject, we just have to add 2 more properties:

• font : to define which standard font we want to use to display text ( see java.awt.Font for details).
• text : simply s String containing the text to be displayed.

As we have already done for the GameObject, we will add as Fluent API a setFont(Font) and a setText(String) to the existing one.

public class TextObect extends GameObject {
    public Font font;
    public String text;

    public TextObject(String name, double x, double y) {
        super(name, x, y);
    }

    public TextObject setFont(Font font) {
        this.font = font;
        return this;
    }

    public TextObject setText(String text) {
        this.text = text;
        return this;
    }
}

Render adaptation

The Render.draw(Graphics,GameObject) must be modified to let it renderer the TextObject. In a first run, we will use a simple if to capture the nature of the object to be rendered:

public class Render {
    //...
    private void draw(Graphics2D g, GameObject go) {
        String goClazzName = go.getClass().getName();

        // rendering the already existing GameObject
        if (GameObject.class.getName().equals(goClazzName)) {

            // rendering the new TextObject
        } else if (TextObject.class.getName().equals(goClazzName)) {
            TextObject to = (TextObject) go;
            g.setColor(to.color);
            g.setFont(to.font);
            g.drawString(to.text, (int) (to.x), (int) (to.y));

        }
    }
    //...
}

How to use it ?

You just have to create a Text Object and add is to the Game objects list:

import fr.snapgames.fromclasstogame.core.scenes.AbstractScene;

class DemoScene extends AbstractScene {
    //...
    public void create() {
        //...
        InputStream is = Game.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("fonts/FreePixel.ttf");
        Font textFont = Font.createFont(Font.TRUETYPE_FONT, is);

        TextObject text = new TextObject("text", 10, 10)
                .setText("Sample from class to game")
                .setFont(textFont);
        add(text);

        //...
    }
    //...
}

TIPS
The TextObject is verified by the feature Game_can_render_multiple_objects.feature.
