How do you get the import added automatically. Like when you write AppGameContainer; You write down the first four letter, then it shows a drop down box. How do you get that? My NetBeans does no such thing, so I find I have to add them manually. It's really more of a minor quirk, but I'd like to know if possible. :)

There are so many small entity libraries for Slick. I hope that eventually a good system can be agreed upon and included in Slick.

@raket94 ya, i got that and idk where to start.

@codecrax If you wanna create fps cames, Marte Engine is not what you are looking for.

You should probably use something like JMonkeyEngine for that!

[codecrax]

I'm aiming for the fps area =\ I'm having trouble finding tuts >.<
