Where do I put the initialize "script" #initialize is not a script, it's a method. When an object is instantiated (for ex with: MyObject new) #initialize is automatically sent to it. This is the place to put your newly created object in a correct initial state. In your class, you just define a protocol named for example "initialization" where you put all the initialization-related methods. Note that protocols have no meaning, i.e. they don't change how your objects behave, they're just here to help you classify the methods of a class by concerns. So the tutorial tell you to create two methods: #initialize that is automatically called after an object has been instantiated and #initializeActiveSegments where you put some other initialization logic, that's all. When I put it on the initializeActiveSegments then initialize get not found. Sorry, I don't understand. Or must I make a seperate protocol named ActiveSegments for it. No use the same protocol "initialization" or "initialize-release" or whatever. Oke, I changed it so I have this : Laser-Game-Model with as classes:   - BlankCell   - Grid   - MirrorCell   -TargetCell BlankCell has the following protocols: - initializing-release - testing Initializing - release contains the following  methods:  - initialize  - initializeActiveSegments testing contains the following methods: isOn isOff but when I run the test-runner I see this : MessageNotUnderstood : BlankCell >> activeSegments. Roelof Then you missed the last step on http://squeak.preeminent.org/tut2007/html/016.html Select "create instance var accessors" from the second popup menu.  I also did. See this : Object subclass: #BlankCell     instanceVariableNames: 'activeSegments'     classVariableNames: ''     category: 'Laser-Game-Model' Roelof
