How to change x and y position

[game2d]

Hi,
I am using Java, Libgdx, box2d


I main class I have created a body and I set player x and y position to 50.

// main class
public class main{
  ...
  private void createPlayer() {
	BodyDef bdef = new BodyDef();
	Body body;
	FixtureDef fdef = new FixtureDef();
	PolygonShape shape = new PolygonShape();

	/*** Body - Player ***/
	bdef.type = BodyType.DynamicBody;
	bdef.position.set(50 / PPM, 50 / PPM);
	bdef.linearVelocity.set(1.5f, 0);
	body = world.createBody(bdef);
        .....
  }
}

How can I set player x and y position to 100.

//player class
public class player{
           public player(Body body){
                 super(body);
           }
       ....
       public void update(){
             //get player x position
             currentX = this.getBody().getPosition().x;

             //how to change player x and y position to 100?   
       }
}

Hi.

Create a method that updates the position of x and y. After doing so, call it in the player class.

Hope I helped.

here is what i tried. but didnt worked bc CreatePlayer() method is in Main class constructor.


// main class

    public class main{
      ...
      public main(){
          createPlayer();
      }
      
      private void createPlayer() {
        BodyDef bdef = new BodyDef();
        Body body;
        FixtureDef fdef = new FixtureDef();
        PolygonShape shape = new PolygonShape();
    
        /*** Body - Player ***/
        bdef.type = BodyType.DynamicBody;
        bdef.position.set(50 / PPM, 50 / PPM);
        bdef.linearVelocity.set(1.5f, 0);
        body = world.createBody(bdef);
            .....
        player = new Player(bdef);
      }
      
      ....
      
      public void update(float dt) {
          playerObj.update(dt);
          ...
      }
    }

//player class

    public class player{
           public player(Body body, BodyDef bdef){
                 super(body);
                 this.bdef = bdef;
           }
    
           ....
           public void update(){
                 //get player x position
                 currentX = this.getBody().getPosition().x;
                
                 //how to change player x and y position to 100? 
                 bdef.position.set(100/PPM, 100/PPM);
           }
    }
