The resource (image, font, sound, etc.) file path has to be relative to the current working directory. The working directory is possibly different from the directory of the python file. It is not enough to put the files in the same directory or sub directory. You also need to set the working directory. Alternatively, you … Read more
Use pygame.Rect objects and colliderect() to detect the collision between the bounding rectangles of 2 objects or 2 images: rect1 = pygame.Rect(x1, y1, w1, h1) rect2 = pygame.Rect(x2, y2, w2, h2) if rect1.colliderect(rect2): # […] If you have to images (pygame.Surface objects), the bounding rectangle of can be get by get_rect(), where the location of … Read more
You can use pygame.key.get_pressed to do that. example: while running: keys = pygame.key.get_pressed() #checking pressed keys if keys[pygame.K_UP]: y1 -= 1 if keys[pygame.K_DOWN]: y1 += 1
Here (OSX Mavericks) I got able to install this way: brew install sdl sdl_image sdl_mixer sdl_ttf portmidi pip install https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/get/default.tar.gz (“default” branch is on commit e3ae850 right now) Source: https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/issue/139/sdlh-not-found-even-thought-it-exists#comment-3822470 See this other StackOverflow question too: PyGame in a virtualenv on OS X with brew?
I assume your game has a main loop, and all your sprites are in a list called sprites. In your main loop, get all events, and check for the MOUSEBUTTONDOWN or MOUSEBUTTONUP event. while … # your main loop # get all events ev = pygame.event.get() # proceed events for event in ev: # handle … Read more
You can get the events from pygame and then watch out for the KEYDOWN event, instead of looking at the keys returned by get_pressed()(which gives you keys that are currently pressed down, whereas the KEYDOWN event shows you which keys were pressed down on that frame). What’s happening with your code right now is that … Read more
In PyGame, basic collision detection can be done using pygame.Rect objects. The Rect object offers various methods for detecting collisions between objects. Note that even the collision of a rectangular object with a circular object such as a paddle and a ball in Pong game can be roughly detected by a collision between two rectangular … Read more
From what it seems, you would just need to make a nested loop for b in range(5): XPos = #insert original starting value for i in range(11): invader = Invader.Invader() invader.setPosX(xPos) invader.setPosY(20 * b) #adjust y values to your preference self.invaders.append(invader) xPos += 32 This will create five rows of 11. Make sure you change … Read more
You must first import random. To choose your image, do image = math_list.pop(random.randint(0,len(math_list)-1)). randint is used to choose a random number from 0 to 4, each one corresponding to an item in the list. pop removes that item and returns it to image.
That’s because you never set an initial value for x and y in either ArcherDown or Archer. You can solve this problem by adding a method such as def __init__(self, x, y): self.x = x self.y = y to each class.
