So I'm trying to make an easter egg mode for a program. What I want it to do is if you click a button, it sets boolean eastermode to true. I tried making it final, public, private and a lot of different things, but I eventually settled on using getters and setters from another class. However, this didn't work. Here's my JConsole class (slightly changed to delete irrelevant parts to this question):
package main.java;

        double delta = 0;
        long now;
        long lastTime = System.nanoTime();
        long timer = 0;
        int ticks = 0;
        while(running) {
            now = System.nanoTime();
            delta +=(now - lastTime) / timePerTick;
            timer += now - lastTime;
            lastTime = now;
            if(delta >= 1) {
            tick();
            ticks++;
            delta--;
            }
            if (timer >= 1000000000){
                System.out.println("fps: " + ticks);
                ticks = 0;
                timer = 0;
            }
        }
    }
}
And here's my EggManager (ignore key manager, not important to question): package main.java;
public class EggManager {
    public boolean eastermode = false;
    public boolean isEastermode() {
        return eastermode;
    }
    public void setEastermode(boolean eastermode) {
        this.eastermode = eastermode;
    }
}
If someone could help, that would be so great. Thanks.
