Need help, first time java programming (in BlueJ)

[sman789]

here's the bulk of my program
Text
and when i run it it gives me a java.lang.StackOverflowError which i've searched to mean its recurses too much
it also highlights my forward command when it lists the error

where am i going wrong?

I think I see your problem. Basically, once the bot checks to the right and finds a path, it goes into a new forward method. But when it finishes, it still has to deal with the original method. Also, the bot will turn left when it reaches a dead end no matter what, which may be bad. I would suggest having a "checkLeft()" method.
