Thread: Connect Four Game need help pleaseee!!

I have to make a processing game, I got my game to fully work but I want to add some motion into it I want to have the chips when clicked to start on the top of the board and drop down to the bottom. Please help me!!!

int count = 0;

int a;
int b;
for ( a = 0; a<cols; a++) {

The program that I am using is called Processing which is a little different then your standard java coding with eclipse.

The code is all one class, which makes up the game which is fully functional, I just wanted help with putting movement in and rather then clicking on the board and having the chip appear I wanted them to have motion and have them drop to the bottom of the board.
