Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException

I am getting a "Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException" error, and I need some help. I have tried everything I could think of, and it won't fix it.

}

did u try to print out which of either win or GB is null in your refreshWindow method? it could be as simple as uncommenting the try catch block ;)

It is fixed. I got a bit of help elsewhere.

Please post the solution if you've found one.

win was still set to null in the AbstractGame class
