This is the course schedule site. It has many things but u do not need to look at them all. mainly u should look at the following items (in the downloads section):
1. Game Rules
2. Milestone 1
what tasks should we do and when to submit the engine for the game..
3. Ataxx Class Diagram
how to create the engine: the methods and the classes.

Your teacher told you to make a game but hasn't covered methods and classes? Or do you think you just need to ask your teacher for help? Nobody here is going to do your homework when you haven't even tried in the slightest.

Hello,
the teacher just spoke briefly about the game. he didnt discuss any methods or classes. most of the student were having problems too with the game engine so instead we implemented an easier game called "Tic-Tac-Toe". i had problems with it also.. And hey im not asking you(or anyone else) to do the game for me.. I just need help inorder that... well, I have attached a file(engine.java) witch has wht i have done (or can do) until now... im supposed to deliver the engine some time next week(from saturday to thurday..).

Please help me as much as you can and as soon as you can..
Thank you so much!
