Hi guys, this assignment is for a mod class I am taking. Our assignment is to take an almost empty pong game and make it into a complete one. What was given to us initially was the userpaddle and the ball drawings. All the collision detection was added by me. That being said, for some reason the computer paddle AI isn't working and I'm not sure what's wrong. Please keep in mind I am still a beginner programmer and java is a new language to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
