So, my JFrame becomes unresponsive when I run this code. I managed to trace it back to the while loop under gameLoop(). Regardless of using delay(1000/FRAMERATE) which calls Thread.sleep() within it, it will not allow the Key or Mouse Listeners to do their job.
Full code below, problem exists in gameLoop()
package me.LemmingsGame;

import javax.swing.*;
public class Game extends JFrame implements KeyListener, MouseListener{
private World wrld;//reference to current world
private WorldFile loader=null;//world data
private int gateCounter;
private int width,height; //width and height of level
private int mx,my;
private int tool = Lemming.CLIMB;
private Image dbImage; private Graphics dbg; //backbuffer
private Image [] sprites;//all images used in game
private Lemming[] lemmings; //array of all Lemmings in level
private int nextLem;//next Lemming to be received from Gate class
private int running;//state of game
private static final int FRAMERATE=180;//assigned framerate
public Game(WorldFile loader){
super("Lemmings");
setLocation(50,40);
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
setResizable(false);
width=3+loader.x*10;height=29+loader.y*10;
loadImages();
lemmings=new Lemming[loader.noLemmings*loader.gates().length];

this.loader=loader;

gameLoop();
}
public void loadImages(){
sprites=new Image[2];
sprites[0]=new ImageIcon("Resources/toolbar.png").getImage();
sprites[1]=new ImageIcon("Resources/selector.png").getImage();
}
public static void delay(long len){
try{
Thread.sleep(len);

System.out.println(e);
}
}
public void moveLemmings(){

for(int i = 0;i<nextLem;i++)
lemmings[i].cycle();
}

}
}
public void addLemming(Lemming lemmy) {
lemmings[nextLem]=lemmy;
lemmy.spawn();
nextLem++;
}
public void goal(){

dispose();
new Menu();

new Menu();
}
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {}
public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent e) {}
public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e) {}
public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {}
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
System.out.println("boop");

if(mx<40)

If it matters the program begins here and goes to the Game class
package me.LemmingsGame;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.io.File;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Menu extends JFrame implements ActionListener{
/**

private String [] worldPaths;
private String [] worldNames;
private int currentWorld;
public Menu(){
super("Lemmings! By: Jordan and Seth");
this.setLocation(new Point(550,400));
setResizable(false);
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
File listDir[] = new File("./Worlds").listFiles();
int x=0;
for (int i = 0; i < listDir.length; i++)
if (listDir[i].isDirectory())
x++;
worldPaths=new String[x];
worldNames=new String[x];
x=0;
for (int i = 0; i < listDir.length; i++)
if (listDir[i].isDirectory()){
worldPaths[x]=listDir[i].getPath().substring(2);
worldNames[x]=worldPaths[x].substring(7);
x++;
}
worldList=new JComboBox(worldNames);
worldList.addActionListener(this);
worldEditor=new JButton("Open World Editor");
worldEditor.addActionListener(this);
launch = new JButton("Play");
launch.addActionListener(this);
Container cp = getContentPane();
cp.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
cp.add(worldEditor);
cp.add(worldList);
cp.add(launch);
pack();
setVisible(true);
}
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
if(e.getSource()==worldEditor){

}else if(e.getSource()==launch){
dispose();
try {
new Game(new WorldFile(worldPaths[currentWorld]));
} catch (Exception e1) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e1.printStackTrace();
}
}else if(e.getSource()==worldList){
currentWorld=worldList.getSelectedIndex();
}
}
public static void main(String [] args){
new Menu();
}
}
Probably irrelevant, but here's a plug to the github repo https://github.com/cybnetsurfe3011/Lemmings-Computer-Science/
