Java: How can I make a ball behave like a bouncing and resilient ball?

Question

I have two classes BouncingBall, and the other - ElasticBall. Both classes extend BallImpl, which implements an interface called Ball.

public interface Ball {
    int DEFAULT_RADIUS = 50;

    int radius();
    Point center();
    void update();
}

public class BouncingBall extends BallImpl {
    public static final int MOVEMENT_SPEED = 12;

    static final int DOWN = 1;
    static final int UP = -1;

    private int direction;

    BouncingBall(int x, int y, int direction) {
        super(x, y);
        this.direction = direction;
    }

    @Override
    public void update() {
        direction = reverseDirectionIfNecessary();
        y = move();
    }

    private int reverseDirectionIfNecessary() {
        if (movingTooHigh() || movingTooLow()) {
            return switchDirection();
        }

        return this.direction;
    }

    private boolean movingTooLow() {
        return y + radius >= BallWorld.BOX_HEIGHT && movingDown();
    }

    private boolean movingTooHigh() {
        return y - radius <= 0 && movingUp();
    }

    private int switchDirection() {
        return movingDown() ? UP : DOWN;
    }

    private int move() {
        return y + (MOVEMENT_SPEED * direction);
    }

    private boolean movingDown() {
        return direction == DOWN;
    }

    private boolean movingUp() {
        return direction == UP;
    }
}

public class ElasticBall extends BallImpl {
    public static final int GROWTH_RATE = 2;

    static final int GROW = 1;
    static final int SHRINK = -1;

    private int growthDirection;

    ElasticBall(int x, int y, int radius, int growthDirection) {
        super(x, y, radius);
        this.growthDirection = growthDirection;
    }

    @Override
    public void update() {
        growthDirection = reverseGrowthDirectionIfNecessary();
        radius = next();
    }

    private int reverseGrowthDirectionIfNecessary() {
        if (growingTooBig() || shrinkingTooSmall()) {
            return switchDirection();
        }

        return this.growthDirection;
    }

    private boolean shrinkingTooSmall() {
        return radius <= 0 && shrinking();
    }

    private boolean growingTooBig() {
        return radius >= Ball.DEFAULT_RADIUS && growing();
    }

    private int switchDirection() {
        return growing() ? SHRINK : GROW;
    }

    private int next() {
        return radius + (GROWTH_RATE * growthDirection);
    }

    private boolean shrinking() {
        return growthDirection == SHRINK;
    }

    private boolean growing() {
        return growthDirection == GROW;
    }
}

I need to create BouncingElasticBallone that combines the behavior of classes BouncingBalland ElasticBall. I have poor OOP knowledge and I know that Java does not allow multiple inheritance, so how can I solve this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

One way to get closer to this is not to expand BallImpl, but to sort the plugins. Like this:

public class BallImpl implements Ball {
    List<BallBehavior> behaviors = ...

    @Override
    public void update() {
       behaviors.forEach(behavior -> behavior.update(this));
    }
    ...
}

public interface BallBehavior {
    void update(BallImpl ballImpl);
}

And then just write your resilient and bouncing logic as behavior.
