Multiple animations(threads) in a JPanel

问题:

I am trying to code a board game in Java.

I have 11 classes including Main. Board class which extends JPanel and draws the board image as well as the dice image. The class Player which extends JCoponent and implements Runnable(Thread). Every player instance is a pawn-animation that it is moving across the board. The player class draws the pawn on the board.

Pattern
How the code it looks like :

Board b=new Board(); 
Player p=new Player();
b.add(p);
JPanel panel=new JPanel();
panel.add(b);
add(panel); //adding the panel to the frame.

The problem is that I can't have more than one pawn simultaneously on the board. I have already tried to re-paint all the players (as non-animation) in another class but it didn't work. I also tried JLayeredPane but maybe I am doing something wrong. Unfortunately, I can't change the above pattern so don't make this suggestion.

Thank you in advance for your help.

P.S: I can't post any code because its huge.
P.P.S: more clarifications will be given, if you ask me.

EDIT: I reform my question. Is it possible to have two animations simultaneously on the same panel? if the answer is a yes ..how I can do that?

It's most likely possible to have many components moving all at once. Either use javax.swing.Timer ou SwingWorker for this to work.

Here is a quick example showing you this. It puts 16 pawns on a board and moves them randomly from one place to another.

Maybe your problem is trying to develop a program with a thread for each object, most popular games run with a single thread, two at most. The reason: It will be very complex to synchronize threads with each other, not to mention that your performance will be poor. Even the graphics engine in Java is single threaded and that means you won't have two threads drawing at the same time.
