hi

[austere kraken]

Sorry to inform everybody that responded to me but I am restarting without any tutorials to see what I have learnt! I am struggling to finalise a method that will shoot bullets from the middle of my spaceship, here's my code: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/jipilozasi

[dawn quiver]

Why do you apologize? You've done nothing wrong.

[austere kraken]

They all took the time to point out errors in my code and provided solutions, just felt like I had wasted their time

[dawn quiver]

No. Instead of apologizing you should thank them.

You've not done something wrong, do not do that to yourself, it's not a good trait.

hi

[scenic shoal]

guys plz help me i was trying to make a collision ,so i created 4 rects to make a square but whenever the player go to the left rect for example he stop why ?i just started learning pygame one month ago so i dont have alot of experience

[river flint]

HELLO

wait if you made a collisoin

doesnt that mean that its a boundry on that side?

[river flint]

guys what does this picture mean

ssl.SSLCertVerificationError: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: certificate has expired (_ssl.c:1108)

i dont understand

[frank field]

Hey @river cargo!

It looks like you tried to attach a Python file - please use a code-pasting service such as https://paste.pythondiscord.com

2048 game in python

is there a better way?

[deep dome]

I used PyInstaller to create an executable of my game, I did this on a Mac. But when I send the zip file to my friend (who’s on a Windows), he gets a file which he can’t open. I put all of the game assets on the ZIP file, and I can open the executable just fine on my computer. Does anyone know what the problem is?

[hearty quartz]

mac executible. not a windows executible

also mac uses a different file system

[deep dome]

Ah I see, is there any way I could make it Windows executable?

[river flint]

Salutations! I was wondering what does the ssl.SSLCertVerificationError: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: certificate has expired (_ssl.c:1108) errror mean?

[hardy escarp]

Hi, I have a prob. In my game there are text maps that you can move around with WASD but it uses win32api which only supports windows. I don't use the input function because it takes input before it shows up with your prompt. If I use the win32api and input function then the input prompt it shows something like wadwasdwadddas. So I want to find a lib that supports windows, mac, and Linux that I can use to make my own input function.

I know of keyboard but I think it only has input for waiting for a key to be pressed not checking for a key to be pressed in a loop.

This is my old input function

                    display += str(keys[index])
                clear()
                print(text)

Help on function is_pressed in module keyboard:

line 28, in <module>
start_button = Button(100, 200, start_img)
TypeError: Button() takes no arguments

what does this mean

[karmic crescent]

start_button = Button() no arguments means you cant fill in the parenthesis

[river flint]

ohh ok

thanks

also how do oyu open a window

from pgyame o

[karmic crescent]

SCREEN_WIDTH = 1920
SCREEN_HEIGHT = 1080``` this is how i started my window would you like me to send you the tutorial im watching so you can follow along aswell?

[river flint]

yea sure

also go into DMS

i can ask u questions more directly from there

[scenic shoal]

guys can someone bad at art(pixel art to be precise) become good at it with practice or is it like a talent that is not for everyone .

[tranquil girder]

Definitely the first. Not only do you need practice, you also need study. I recommend studying drawing and painting in general and not just pixel art, since they're really the same and there are better learning resources.

[scenic shoal]

thanx man i will practice i am an intermediate at pygame i know how to code verry well on python and i wanted to improve my art skills then moving to music/sfx.

[dawn quiver]

How do I add a cooldown to lets say jumping in pygame?

Is it like:

cd: bool = False

def jump():
  cd = True
  pygame.time.delay(5000)
  cd = False

Does that wokr?

[potent ice]

Save a timestamp when a jump is performed and check the timestamp for every jump attempt

https://www.pygame.org/docs/ref/time.html#pygame.time.get_ticks

1000 = 1 second

[dawn quiver]

Ur so smart! ❤️ thank you

[dawn quiver]

@potent ice

I have this:

if pygame.time.get_ticks() - 2 > self.stamp:
            print('woooh')
            self.y -= self.VELOCITY
            self.stamp = pygame.time.get_ticks()
``` but it isn't working, how come?

def __init__(self, x: int, y: int) -> None:
        self.cooldown: bool = False
        self.stamp = pygame.time.get_ticks()
        self.x: int = x
        self.y: int = y

I'm trying to make flappybird

The bird isn't supposed to fall

until the jump is completed

im not sure how to do that

and Im also not sure how to add a cooldown for the jump

until the previous is completed

or maybe not until its completed

like a 0.5 second delay

because all it does right now is if i hold space

it doesnt check

[rain dome]

I have a text label with the number 10 on it, I want to make that number go down one how would I do that?

[1] ammo = Text(text="10", scale = (4, 4, 4), origin=(6.5,4.5))

[hardy escarp]

Hi, I am looking for a coding friend to help me on a project. I have been coding for more than 2 years now. I have been working on a project called PyBattle. It is a Pokémon style fighting text game where you can move around maps. It doesn't really work yet and I have a lot of idea to add.

The code is here: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/qogazugiqo.py

[snow hill]

Nice piece of code 🙂

[rain dome]

It's a download, I'm calling mod.

[rain dome]

<@&831776746206265384>

[shut onyx]

sup?

[rain dome]

Click that link, it will prompt a dangerous download.

[shut onyx]

that's discord being paranoid about the .py extension

it just takes you to a pastebin with their code

[rain dome]

Oh okay, sorry for bothering y'all, usually I call a mod when that happens, but I'll remember later.

[hybrid burrow]

I've read everything. It looks interesting. Really. I'd like to play, when it will be finished :)

[hardy escarp]

Thanks for giving me support

[woeful island]

Hi

I’m new to game development

i want to create my first game with python

and uhh

I don’t know what to do

or what to start with…

can anyone help me pls

just ping me if you have an answer

[dawn quiver]

Game development is pretty challenging

I'd recommend being confident with your language fundamentals first

[woeful island]

i think i am…

do you have any more tips

[dawn quiver]

In that case, pick up a nice graphics framework

pygame is a popular choice with a lot of cross compatibility

You can even run pygame applications on the browser now

The docs and examples are great

[ivory raven]

i would start out with less "games" but more sort of these simple samples

what you need to do to start is just worry about finishing what you start

once you can learn to finish projects you can slowly improve and make them better

[woeful island]

oh ok

[ivory raven]

like

my first project i made in pygame

was literally a square that moves around the screen

and i couldnt move it off screen

then my second one was just pong

techwithtim made good tutorials

for pygame

but dont follow them exactly

you want to learn the patterns that he is using (the main loop, the clock, getting key input, etc)

then use those for your own games

[fair cape]

there's a Zelda-like tutorial on youtube

it's crazy long though (7 hours)

[flint current]

yeah trying to learn patterns or algorithms from guides is good but you should also try to use them and create your own games

[ivory raven]

as long as you dont just look up your idea and then copy a tutorials code

make sure you at least use their code to understand

[remote timber]

Wait i think i have seen it

[woeful island]

ah ok

[woeful island]

i’m gonna try watch it

[drowsy shoal]

does anyone know how to do multiplayer in ursina

please

[vagrant saddle]

use a separated tested and maintened python networking library for that, and preferably compatible with async model and webrtc if you want to run on web someday

[drowsy shoal]

what

[drowsy shoal]

what

is there a tutorial on how to do that

[vagrant saddle]

nope most of game lib networking are written in C or C++

[drowsy shoal]

oh

[vagrant saddle]

you may find some documentation in their bindings

[drowsy shoal]

is there one that I can use with ursina

?

[vagrant saddle]

well in the past it was quite easy to use pyenet, but it would be more interesting today to bind to something that look like humblenet

[gentle falcon]

Hey Can someone point me to the correct channel where I can ask my queries related to image processing and Computer Vision Stuffs?

[junior tangle]

Wassup, i think Ursina engine has finally made a macOS port, any1 tried?

[tranquil girder]

it has always worked on mac

[potent ice]

I can confirm

[junior tangle]

Was it? Idk i heard it from this clear code tutorial (but it was 2020)
1:16 https://youtu.be/DHSRaVeQxIk

[tranquil girder]

It did work then too, it just wasn't listed on the website. Mainly be cause I don't have a Mac to test on

Technically everything that panda3d works on, ursina also works on

[junior tangle]

Well, thx for info, clear code got me messed up

[rain dome]

Oh hi poke.

[rain dome]

How would I fix this? Everytime I shoot the number goes down but. which is good but it moves for some reason.
Code: https://pastebin.com/nFmP6xDa

[junior tangle]

Are you the ursina dev by any chance?

[tranquil girder]

yes

[half epoch]

I tried to make a 2d game with pygame

It didnt work well

[ivory raven]

like

how didnt it work?

pygame itself works fine for me

[rain dome]

You have a typo on your ursina website on the API reference.

[junior tangle]

well thats an honour 😳

[subtle coral]

Hi All. https://www.pygame.org/ reports "Internal Server Error". Who to contact?

[wicked raptor]

I'm not saying that I want to immediately jump into game development but I want to head in the game development direction. So far I have made a bunch of terminal games and a few Tkinter windows applications. Any advice?

[junior tangle]

Pygame tutorial, then recreate the game without a tutorial. This will give you a solid base of game dev. Then study unity, roblox studio or ue4, then c# or lua, c++ if you have the guts.
Im not a pro yet but hope its helpful

[wicked raptor]

would you recommend any specific tutorials?

[junior tangle]

gimme a sec

I watched this one, but i suggest you watch it twice (game dev can be very time consuming) https://youtu.be/AY9MnQ4x3zk

[wicked raptor]

cool thanks

[junior tangle]

But if you want to work for a company, i suggest you make a few games on pygame, as its good for general cs knowledge

If youre going indie, you can try just going straight into Unity or UE4 (but you will have to learn c# or c++ which are hard)

[wicked raptor]

I was thinking of doing a pygame course/tutorial but I have seen a lot of people who have just started just go into this channel and say "what's the easiest game engine to use" and I just wanted to make sure I wasn't rushing into anything to advanced even though I have been coding for a while

[wicked raptor]

Yeah I will eventually go into c, c# and c++ but for now I want to fully learn python and js before trying a new launguage

[junior tangle]

Imo you dont really need a course, you can watch a few tutorials, but the key is to do stuff, and not just listen to tutorials

for pygame

for Unity a course would not be a bad idea imo

Anyway good luck on ur journey

[wicked raptor]

thanks a lot mate

i want it to scroll so that the car will look like its driving forward

right now it looks like the car is driving backwards

[feral turret]

What type of game you're making?

[brittle grove]

https://ocetus.itch.io/math-game

this was the original game

now i want to make it with cars

You did the Art?

[brittle grove]

no

[feral turret]

so u cant help me?

https://www.mediafire.com/view/jt3gh9i7ngktnlr/Car.png/file

https://www.mediafire.com/view/gq0ol4b7jt8cmjj/Road.png/file

these r the pictures

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ikinumaqok

the code

[flint current]

Maybe this is the issue? Your scroll variable is always having a negative value or 0. Since you add that variable into the y value of where you want to blit the road. It actually causes a decrease in the y value. Decrease in y value = going higher in pygame.

Looking from your car image. Its direction is upwards. Im guessing you want the road images to go downwards so that the car looks like its going upwards. Why dont you try replacing the

scroll -= 5

line with

scroll += 5

(?)

[sterile iris]

how is not known when i downloaded pygame?

[junior tangle]

Hey, im here to make some new friends who are keen on pygame. Maybe to exchange our game code and give each other tips and share experience
Feeling a bit lonely doing this project, so if some1 is up for a nice chat, or even a teamup - looking forward to it)

[slow rose]

what is the best python library to make 3D stuff (beside OpenGL)

[raw shadow]

If I use ursina engine, can the game be exported to apk?

[raw shadow]

Ursina engine

[vagrant saddle]

Ursina is based on Panda3D which can be exported to apk and web, so maybe

[vagrant saddle]

there is also Harfang3D 3.2.3, which could probably run on android and web with some good will.

[sterile iris]

^^

[quasi patrol]

type pip install pygame

[sterile iris]

i did

[pliant badge]

Amazing game

[brittle grove]

thx for the help but that wasnt the problem

i had to change this
Display.blit(Background, (0, i * Background_Width + Scroll))
into this
Display.blit(Background, (0, -i * Background_Width + Scroll))

[junior tangle]

Thx a lot :)

pretty simple but im working on it

[slow rose]

so you can like use panda3D with python?

[tranquil girder]

yes

[slow rose]

thx

looks like a really cool game

[hardy escarp]

it is but i want to remake it cause it is really buggy

i made a saving prototype that works really well

[shut tangle]

Nice how long did it take to program it?

[hardy escarp]

it took 2 years

i made like 50 verisons

[shut tangle]

lol

[hardy escarp]

also it is how i learned so i am a lot faster and have a lot more knowledge

[visual zinc]

does anyone have any resources / articles concerning best practices validating (or maybe detecting cheating?) for javascript games -- or really, anything where the code execution is out of my hands. Validating user input is obvious to me at the scope of form input (e.g. is this value valid for this form field) -- but when "valid" is dependent on player skill I lose my bearings about where and how to trust. I'm not assuming there's a perfect solution, but I'd like to read about how other people solve that kind of problem

Please ask a more specific question. "Can anyone help me?" won't get you very far.

For example, which parts do you need help coding with? Break it up into sub-problems and ask questions about each of those.

[vagrant saddle]

yes on vt420 dec terminals with sixel support (xterm / mintty and others )

and there's actually an indirect pygame backend for that called xserver-SIXEL

[hardy escarp]

I am not trying to get help with errors and stuff like that. I just want a friend to help me make remake the game.

@jagged goblet isnt there supposed to be a def__innt__

def_init__ class

i think

[jaunty prairie]

if keyboard.is_pressed("q"): # if key 'q' is pressed
print('You Pressed Q Key!')

Hi everyone, could anyone give me ideas about how to solve this issue?

[near helm]

That's awesome! I want to make a game like it but, but I'm still learning to code. Is a project like that a good one to take on?

[woeful island]

Just run your command line as the administrator?

[hollow delta]

I mean its the way I learned proper python, so yes

[near helm]

Awesome do you mind helping me get started down the right path? And PS: I'm a Linux gamer as well so that might sweeten the pot lol.

[hollow delta]

Yes, of course, just dm me

[lilac yacht]

@hardy escarp how it should work

[burnt dawn]

hi

I'm tryna make conway's game of life in pygame, and idk what the rule is

[hardy escarp]

i didnt know thats why i ran it

Guys Im making a game and i want to make a camera that follow my player how i do this

[tranquil girder]

camera.parent = player

that's how to do it with ursina at least.
for nice smooth movement i do this instead:

def update():
    camera.position = lerp(camera.position, player.position, time.dt*5)

[dreamy wedge]

How ?

So i need to make a def function and a make a variable and type this ?

Alright ?

[tranquil girder]

what library are you using?

[dreamy wedge]

Pygame

[tranquil girder]

oh

idk then
I think you have to move everything but the player in the opposite direction in order to make it look like there's a camera

[dreamy wedge]

Ok

Guys Im making a game and i want to make a camera that follow my player how i do this (pygame)

[potent ice]

You just got the answer. You move everything except the player

When scrolling around you should only draw what is visible for the "camera"

[dreamy wedge]

And how i move everything

[potent ice]

Move all the individual things you draw by a global scroll x and y value

"Move" is probably misleading here. You simply redraw everything offset by the global scroll value

[dreamy wedge]

global scroll.x player

Like this ?

[potent ice]

When you draw something you specify coordinates, right?

Every time you draw something you need to add the scroll values to those coordiantes

[dreamy wedge]

No i dont

[potent ice]

There are many tutorials on this if you search around

[dreamy wedge]

I search

I want to move camera with player

[potent ice]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7LPRqrzry8

[dreamy wedge]

I see it but it doesnt work

Its clear code

[potent ice]

Share some minimal code showing what you did.

[dreamy wedge]

Alright

Wait a minute

Hey @dreamy wedge!

You either uploaded a .txt file or entered a message that was too long. Please use our paste bin instead.

[potent ice]

[dreamy wedge]

i paste my code

u see ?

i save it

[potent ice]

You need to paste the link

[dreamy wedge]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/haviroxemu

[potent ice]

I don't see anything related to offset or camera here

[dreamy wedge]

yes

i try but it doesn't work, so i delete it

i maked a world offset but it doesnt work

[potent ice]

Now that doesn't help

Also I would need the resource files

[dreamy wedge]

ok

where i send it ?

[frank field]

Hey @dreamy wedge!

It looks like you tried to attach file type(s) that we do not allow (.ttf). We currently allow the following file types: .gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .mov, .mp4, .mpg, .png, .mp3, .wav, .ogg, .webm, .webp, .flac, .m4a, .csv, .json.

Feel free to ask in #community-meta if you think this is a mistake.

[dreamy wedge]

@potent ice

[potent ice]

Try something simple to start with like ```
camera_pos = pygame.Vector2(playerx, playery)
screen.blit(bg, -camera_pos)

That should at least move the background

[dreamy wedge]

ok

[potent ice]

There are many different ways you make a camera. Some people want player always centered. Others want more complex ones.

[dreamy wedge]

oh thxxx

[potent ice]

If you want a simple camera you can move the camera position instead of the player

[dreamy wedge]

yes i know simple camera and complex camera

yeah and the complex camera ?

[potent ice]

More complex cameras stop scrolling at the world borders. Some even have zoom.

It depends what you need

[dreamy wedge]

oh thx

u made my day

thx

[harsh birch]

so im tryna make a pygame project an exe using some python modules, but they all trigger a false-pos for the antivirus. any way to let someone play my game without having them download python or trigger their antivirus?

[zenith pendant]

For me the same thing happened with auto-py-to-exe

I converted my game to exe using pyinstaller

pyinstaller -F --onefile PROJECT.PY

(I think thats exactly how i did it although im not 100% sure)

Windows still gives a unknown author pop up,
But with my game didn't get instantly removed like before by windows defender

[harsh birch]

kk

i used pyinstaller

but with diff commands

i think it was onefile and no cmd line or something

hi all. so i wanna make a rpg game. not with moves, map etc. almost all will be user interface. firstly i tried with tkinter but it was a bad idea. i also searched something in youtube how to work with gui in pygame but i found only how to make buttons. someone know good videos/tutorials so how to make labels, animations, then delete it and other things.. ?

[rugged silo]

cmon it almost has 69 kb😭😢

[near helm]

Lol

[granite wharf]

hey

what are u guys up to?

[dawn quiver]

I find that Tkinter is only good for text-based games...... by text I mean just text, no pictures. If you want something with a little more flexibility, you could use PySimpleGUI, but that will only get you so far. If you want to get crazy, you can make a GUI + game with the same module using Ursina's (the 3D game engine wrapper around Panda3D) pre-built text and button objects along with 3D or quad models.

[rugged silo]

https://tenor.com/view/confused-unga-bunga-loading-uga-gif-23786525

[potent ice]

this is not a meme channel

[rugged silo]

i found 1 cool module to work with gui in pygame

this module called pygame-gui

or pygame_gui

theres no difference

maybe

.

@dawn quiver check this if interesting : https://pygame-gui.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html

@potent ice ok sry for that

but it was just a gif

not meme

.

[potent ice]

Yeah just keep it at a minimum here. It's generally frowned upon.

[rugged silo]

ok

[potent ice]

This is often the case on large servers. For smaller servers I don't think they care too much

[rugged silo]

it would be nice if it possible to allow gifs/stickers only for users with special roles. maybe.

[dawn quiver]

oh that is very interesting

[rugged silo]

yeah🙂

[dreamy wedge]

Guys how can i make a spritesheet player movement i tried but it failed

[dreamy wedge]

Some help

[glad sparrow]

How can I check for collision with any other collider in ursina engine?

[tranquil girder]

ball = Entity(model='sphere', collider='sphere')
wall = Entity(model='cube', collider='box')

def update():
    if ball.intersects(wall):
        print('hit wall')

It's recommended to specify what it can hit for performance reasons, but if you want it to be able to hit anything with a collider, you can omit the argument:

if ball.intersects():
    print('hit something')

[glad sparrow]

Hmm thanks

Okay can anybody tell me how can i create a simple shop sort of in ursina? Any simple idea I've an complicated one, that I don't want....

[tranquil girder]

Just use buttons

inventory = Entity(gold=55, hamburgers=0)

def buy():
    if inventory.gold < 10:
        print("can't afford")
        return

    inventory.gold -= 10
    inventory.hamburgers += 1
    print('gold:', inventory.gold)
    print('hamburgers:', inventory.hamburgers)

buy_button = Button(text='buy', scale=.3, on_click=buy)

if you need many options you can use a for loop and iterate through a list

[magic tartan]

I am trying to follow AtiByte's Youtube tutorial on the Blender Game Engine but at the point where he tries to add a component it doesn't work for me. When I go to GameComponents and try to add one it says "(Report: Invalid Input Error) no module named ""my_component"" or script error at loading". Any ideas?

import bge
from collections import OrderedDict

class Movement(bge.types.KX_PythonComponent):
    args = OrderedDict([
        ("Move Speed", 0.2),
        ("Turn Speed", 0.4)
    ])
    
    def (self, args):
        self.move_speed = args ["Move Speed"]
        self.move_speed = args ["Turn Speed"]
    
    def update (self):
        keyboard = bge.logic.keyboard
        inputs = keyboard.inputs
    
        move = 0
        rotate = 0

        if inputs[bge.events.WKEY].values[-1]:
        move += self.move_speed
        if inputs[bge.events.SKEY].values[-1]:
        move -= self.move_speed
    
        if inputs[bge.events.AKEY].values[-1]:
        rotate += self.turn_speed
        if inputs[bge.events.DKEY].values[-1]:
        rotate -= self.turn_speed
        
        self.object.applyMovement((0, move, 0), True)

guys how i make a player animation in pygame gys

guys

[stable peak]

i want to try coding games with pygame, do you have anything to tell me before i start?

[dreamy wedge]

Don't waste your time

[dreamy wedge]

Guys how i make player animation in pygame

[covert lagoon]

One thing I did, create a list of frames of the animation. Inside the game loop, keep track of the number of frames there are. Index the sprite list by the total frames mod the length of the list, then blit that to the screen. Feels a bit like reinventing the wheel, there's probably a better solution, but this should work

[glad sparrow]

Well what I meant is how to create the UI, I already got the logic

[short tapir]

heya so i made a snake game using ansi sequences that plays on the console

there is only one current issue

when the snake goes to the very bottom (it does not collide with the bottom, it moves next to it) the ansi sequences get messed up

any idea why?

and yes, i cleared the ansi sequences before doing \n

it still happens anyway

it might just be my side

[velvet summit]

hmm

[short tapir]

because wins terminal does not render anything at all when i run the file

only vsc

!paste

[frank field]

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in Discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the floppy disk icon in the top right, or by typing ctrl + S. After doing that, the URL should change. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

[velvet summit]

win terminal as in cmd? or actual "windows terminal"?

[short tapir]

actual wins terminal

like, the app you download from store

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/enavuyarov

so far i have been running it in vsc

(ignore all the blinking of the screen, that's just it refreshing really fast)

[velvet summit]

i think i see why

one second

scratch that, hmm.. i'll keep looking

how do they get "messed up"?

@short tapir

[short tapir]

gimme a sec @velvet summit

how it looks like for any other wise

side*

how it looks like when i go to bottom

if you find something, tell me

im gonna play fn till then

[velvet summit]

yea not quite sure sorry, i'll update if i do

[short tapir]

anyone?

it's happening in all terminals

[short tapir]

@velvet summit i fixed the issue, turns out it was with the END_STR var being added to the snake variable, which added new lines visually, but not ingame

[velvet summit]

hey. good to hear!

[wary plinth]

is that gonna work

[short tapir]

Yes

[pseudo rivet]

For python specifically tho?

[short tapir]

Yes

Like i know unity uses c#

[short tapir]

Not for this place

That would be in a unity, c# server or ot

Stuff like arcade, ursjna, pyga,e goes here

[pseudo rivet]

Is it more about questions like the code structure

Rather than syntax questions?

[short tapir]

General code and syntaxes questions would usually go in general

[pseudo rivet]

@short tapir I meant for games that dont have python like syntax

I’m asking whether the questions asked pertaining to these game engines are more about the code structure and computational thinking rather than syntax questions

Because it generally doesn’t do a lot to ask a question about a c# question in a python community

Or maybe I’m wrong, idk for sure 😅

[wary plinth]

uh how

[short tapir]

Everything related to the game dev is asked and sent here

[short tapir]

Did you even try it?

[pseudo rivet]

Ah ok 👍

Thx

nah aint working

does anyone know any good websites to download sound effects from?

soundimage.org

[harsh kayak]

do u happen to know how to use downloaded sounds as a windows user?

[vagrant saddle]

nope i'm a linux / pygame-web (webassembly) user

[harsh kayak]

dang it

im so confused rn

windows sucks

[vagrant saddle]

i feel obliged to agree

[harsh kayak]

lol

[vagrant saddle]

but i've heard people use audacity windows version to convert audio for their games maybe that can help you

[harsh kayak]

maybe

winsound.PlaySound('sample.wav', winsound.SND_FILENAME|winsound.SND_NOWAIT) This is what i have to do to play a single sound!!!

windows in on something bro

[vagrant saddle]

use pygame maybe ?

it's as simple as ```py
pygame.mixer.music.load('music.ogg') pygame.mixer.music.set_volume(1.0)
pygame.mixer.music.play(-1)

or

sfx= pygame.mixer.Sound('sfx.ogg'); sfx.play()

[harsh kayak]

i was thinking about that, i need my sound to play right when it hits a wall

it worked!!! LETS GOOO finally

i in range(4/2) is the same as i in range(2) which returns 0, 1 right? Both of these are being ignored by if i > 1

[limber mountain]

Hey all i am going through the clear code zelda tut here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QU1pPzEGrqw at 1hr 10 mins he uses lambda, can someone please explain what that does? I am not sure by the examples i am seeing on W3 schools

[bitter blaze]

Lambda is dumb

[short tapir]

!d lambda

[frank field]

lambda

An anonymous inline function consisting of a single expression which is evaluated when the function is called. The syntax to create a lambda function is lambda [parameters]: expression

Similar names: label.lambda

[short tapir]

for example

double = lambda integer: integer*2 # this returns the integer provided times 2
def double(integer):
  return integer*2 # this does the same thing
print(double(4))```

[limber mountain]

@short tapir So I understand that usage but I guess it's more how he is implementing it in the tutorial, which may be a lot to ask. I'll take a look again. Thank you for the response.

[limber mountain]

so he is using it as a key to the sorted

which is being applied to a sprited group (pygame), i get the concept of sorting the elements (sprites) of sprite group and drawing them starting with highest sprite.centery as that will mean lower sprites get drawn over higher ones (ysorting) the concept makes sense just not sure why a key is needed and what lambda sprites does as thats not an expression this may not be the place to post as it has to do with python and pygame

[dawn quiver]

anyone know how to make one of these for my software

[velvet summit]

can you describe it a bit better

you just want to make the text to copy and paste?

what's a good python library for 2D platformers?

[fickle estuary]

Pygame is your go to for 2d games i would say

[dawn quiver]

I've made a couple platformers with pygame

Here are some of my proud ones,

The first video is not just me though, it is the equal effort of 3 developers 💪

[brave cape]

wow, both are impressive

i could never get that far at pygame

[hasty fox]

wow thats nice

[dawn quiver]

It gets pretty easy once you have some basic concepts down!

[brave cape]

always wanted to make something like a strategy game, like a hoi4, but with simpler graphics of course

[dawn quiver]

For example, the first one there was made in 7 days for the pygame community game jam

[dawn quiver]

Strategy games seem like a fun choice to develop, GL!

[hybrid cairn]

hello

many people use classes for their games why is that

[small nexus]

what are classs

[dawn quiver]

In Python? Well, in Python everything is an object, so creating types and instances are a pointless thing to try and avoid

Though, just because you use classes doesn't mean you use OOP
Classes in Python are versatile enough to support ECS, OOP(inheritance) and many other kinds of paradigms and design patterns

[hybrid cairn]

i mean if my code runs fine without classes why should i use them

is it more efficient?

maybe faster?

[small nexus]

hello, please what are classes

[dawn quiver]

A blueprint to create instances

!e

class Foo:
    pass

foo = Foo()
print(foo)

[frank field]

@dawn quiver :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

<__main__.Foo object at 0x7f1815adb1d0>

[dawn quiver]

foo is an instance and Foo is a class

[dawn quiver]

If it is flexible and fast enough for your needs, then I see no problem with not using classes and continuing as it is for you

[small nexus]

thanks helps a lot

[dawn quiver]

There is no need for you to define any types yourself

[dawn quiver]

Heres a detailed video on it to get a better understanding
https://realpython.com/lessons/classes-python/

[white vector]

An alternative to using dictionaries to store data and functions to manipulate it, but you can also program how an instance of a class behaves under different syntax situations, like a + b is decided by a.__pos__(b)

[small nexus]

thanks, am so so so greatful😁

[hybrid cairn]

this example doesnt have to do with game dev but if lets say i have a sql database which has data on students (marks, subjects, etc..) and I want to retrieve certain records and perform various calculations, concatenations and functions, would making a class and instances improve my code in any way? instead of just using my functions and returning the values

[white vector]

It would ideally make it more readable, and possibly more efficient depending on the alternative

It mostly helps grasp the concepts of your code.
For example when making a database that records data about people, you might make a Person instance so you know to expect certain attributes.

But technically you don't need it you can just make a structure out of dictionaries for the same effect. The syntax might suffer though.

anything that works, works; classes are just the ideal way to make an object-oriented script

Sorry about my bad explanation I'm just trying to code with 4 dimensional objects at the moment

[white vector]

But in game development, objects are useful to represent in-game items like the window, the background, various sprites, etc.

[hybrid cairn]

thanks for the explanation it all makes sense. 🙏

[white vector]

It does?

I'll give an example of how I have recently used classes.
Attached image is a ss of me playing 4D Snake.
I used a class for a cell (one small square), Cell to simply contain engine-coordinates and the state of the cell at that coordinate
I used a class Engine to contain it's own matrix of Cells and carry methods to manipulate the states of those cells for each action.
I used a class Interface to detect keyboard data and show the state of an internally initialised Engine() instance when it updates, and to run an event loop when called until a halting state is raised from the engine

It looks weird because 4D space doesn't really fit on a 2D screen, but that's beside the point.

[hybrid cairn]

use of classes like this still seems unclear to me but i do understand it makes code cleaner, ill look up a few tutorials and explanations later

oh also

i have a question regarding a game im making, i have a few if statements that detect if a value is 0 or not, and i control this value by adding or subtracting a certain constant, 3 for example, and when this value reaches 2 it goes into an infinite loop of increasing and decreasing, how can i fix this?

[white vector]

detect if in a range?

something like if value in range(2): break

idk I would need to see the context to know why it isn't behaving as expected

[hybrid cairn]

so im increasing or decreasing the radius of a circle by a 10, first i set a target radius (radius+10) and add 3 to the radius every loop until it reaches target for smooth animation, and as u might expect it will never reach target like this because it can get as close as 9 but never 10

i can fix this by increasing target by multiples of the constant, but i want a solution without this

[white vector]

try capturing a range instead of using direct equality

[hybrid cairn]

yeah i fixed this by getting it to subtract/add by 1 when it reaches a tight range above and below the target

thanks

WIP porting a Lua project to Python:

[small nexus]

what will i do when my shell window says actor in a tuple is undifinrd

[uncut bolt]

Does anyone know how complicated it would be to code a dating/chatting sim?

[normal silo]

Lets say you are calling a function with the arguments x y and z. And you find yourself calling other functions that also have x y and z as arguments. So you are constantly passing around x y and z together. It makes sense to make a class out of them because they are tied together / often come together.

Which reduces your code size, and prevents mistakes in which you maybe don't pass x y and z together correctly.

If those functions that you were passing x, y and z into are all manipulating x y and z in some way / making use of, you can make those functions methods of the class.

Now if you decide that those functions/methods want not only x y and z, but all/some of them also want w, you can just add w to the class and now all of them have access to w. Without the class, you would have to go edit each function's signature to take w, and now also pass in w at each call site. So the point of classes is organization and dealing with larger projects at scale, reducing complexity, work, and mistakes.

[uncut bolt]

Wow, coding is complex

[restive swan]

Hello

Uh

[uncut bolt]

Hi :)

[restive swan]

So

I want to make a private brawl stars server

I'm a modder

But I don't know how to make one👽

Can someone explain some basic things to me

[uncut bolt]

Im afraid i cant help you, sorry. Good luck tho! :)

I hope someone can ^^

[restive swan]

ok thx

[hybrid cairn]

this is the clearest explanation so far, thank you so much mate

makes more sense now

[normal silo]

The last part about being able to edit what is in the class and that now being automatically in all those methods for use is one huge part of it. Especially in game dev where your idea of what you wanted / need access to in those functions constantly changes.

It may help to replace the word "class" with "record".

A record is some group of heterogeneous data (e.g. an int, string, other record).

Clustered together so that it can passed around together.

i have no friends that know how to code😭

im kinda on my own path with learning and I need some guidance

[old axle]

learn some of the basics and then make a simple project that you enjoy

learn some more, rinse and repeat

google is your best friend, dont be afriand to fail. Always have a goal in mind before coding and make sure to plan stuff out

think ahead, its better to waste one day realizing something is dumb than to waste a month doing that dumb thing

surround yourself with more experianced programmers and always look for ways to get feedback on code

dont be afraid of critisicm and try your best

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^those are the best tips i can give a beginner

[dark sparrow]

Is it possible to grab an item from a class without knowing that the item will be beforehand?

Example:

class items:
  IronSword = "An iron sword"
  IronOre = "Chunk of raw iron"

#player picks one
c = IronSword
print(items.c)

But oh, c isn't an object in items, so this won't work

[ancient jetty]

This looks like Minecraft…..

[dark sparrow]

Example:

class items:
  Pot = "A pot"
  DaedricHelmet = "Scary helmet go brrr"

#player picks one
c = DaedricHelmet
print(items.c)

@ancient jetty You were saying?

[ancient jetty]

Nvm lol

Also

WHY YOU ATE CAT

[dark sparrow]

There was muffins the cat. Then python ate cat

[ancient jetty]

Make sense

[dawn quiver]

Yes, you can use getattr

    SWORD = "test"

player_input = "SWORD"
print(getattr(Foo, player_input))

[frank field]

@dawn quiver :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

    for n in range(len(chosen_word)):

            display[n] = chosen_word[n]
    if not guess in chosen_word:
        lives -= 1
        print(f"You guessed '{guess}', that's not in the word. {lives} lives left.")
    
    print(hangman_art.stages[lives])
    print(' '.join(display))        

while '_' in display and not lives == 0:
    hangman()
    if lives == 0:
        print("You lose.")
    elif not '_' in display:
        print("You win!")

Made Hangman few days ago, modified it today.

Kinda feeling good since I did everything on my own and my code is shorter and I guess more readable than the solution (of the course I'm follwoing).

I'm working on a renderer for working with pygame to create a top-down style game with basic 2D sprites. I'm wondering how I should design the renderer class.

I'm not sure if that'll work or if I'm oversimplifying.

[frank field]

Install packages with `python -m pip`

When trying to install a package via pip, it's recommended to invoke pip as a module: python -m pip install your_package.

Why would we use python -m pip instead of pip?
Invoking pip as a module ensures you know which pip you're using. This is helpful if you have multiple Python versions. You always know which Python version you're installing packages to.

Note
The exact python command you invoke can vary. It may be python3 or py, ensure it's correct for your system.

[white vector]

Anyone still struggling with how my 4D projection works, the highlighted space in the following example is a 3D cube. If you were a 3D observer in this area, then if you look down, there is food on the floor touching a wall, if you look up, you see a small blob of snake, followed by a twisted section of snake, and touching a wall higher up is another small blob of snake.
The extra dimension is also space, but not accessible by our imaginary 3D observer. The entire board is a hypercube

you can temporarily reconstruct a 3D space in your mind by imagining all the panels rotating in the desired hyperdirection to show panels stacked on top of each other. Change direction of panel rotation in your imagination to "look" in a different direction.

like if player 1's level is higher than player 2 the dodge chances are smaller for player 2 or some stuff?

so along time ago i made a snake game and it worked today i decided to try to make an ai to play it .
so i make an exact copy of the game. i changed some things so it can work with the ai. notice i didn't touch the collision detection and ow it gives me this message

i know what it means but in the exact same code on my old version of the game just works

Hello!

Where I can learn pygame?

[frosty nova]

The pinned messages have some resources for the different libraries. Also, I imagine the pygame website has a few suggestions.

[harsh kayak]

when i first started i really just watched tutorials of people making games using pygame and after a few i started to understand the concept

[snow hill]

This afternoon it’s quiet at the office so we setup a cockpit to test the VR mode of the Dogfight

This simple flight simulator is implemented in Python (see https://github.com/harfang3d/dogfight-sandbox-hg2)

Even though people wouldn’t believe it 😅

[gritty eagle]

Neural link?

[gritty eagle]

Your mentality won’t let you. You can do anything you want but not when you say things like that. Even if your joking it affects deeply

[gritty eagle]

Aren’t games best developed in c/c++

I saw you had physics and etc, I’ve did a little of game developing on unity and I just had to apply a little c++ script

[snow hill]

the simulator is written in Python but the 3D engine, VR and physics are in C++ 🙂

besides, doing this in python has a lot of advantages

1. the simulator is TRUELY open source (and not a "semi open source" project based on a proprietary engine)
2. Python can natively interconnect with AI and maths libs (numpy, pytorch, tensor flow...)

3. we can do all the project outside of a proprietary IDE (VSCode, Pycharm) ... you don't need to start Unity to run this program 🙂 or even to develop it 🙂

so yeah, I agree, Unity is cool
but Python is just another way that seems as acceptable to me 🙂

Hi people, new to this channel.
For learning i want to recreate a board game which i play with the kids (ticker to ride junior)

I want to practise OOP and wandering on some issues:

• there are 22 stations (list of 22 objects Station)
• there a 2 decks of cards (routes = several sections to go for first station to second stations. At least 2 sections).

I'm wandering about this:
Between a station and other adjecent station there is a "section"; total 45 section.

How would you handle this in OOP?
On paper i created a 2D matrix with all connections. 45 in total, 90 if you count both ways.

Would i make a section a seperate object with a "start" and "finish" station in it? and a mark if the section is completed by a player (sometimes a section can be filled in 2 seperate options; so P1 can claim the section and also P2 can claim the section

furthemore i don't know if i should store the sections within the stations list. (Like London has 5 sections associated with). Don't want to store them duplicate. (London - Dublin and Dublin - London). Cause in the end i need to check if a route is completed between stations.

suggestions welcome!

Hey, I'm not sure if this is allowed but I have a game dev related question currently in Help Pancakes. It's rather complicated so I just wanted to throw it out into here. If there are any experts I'd much appreciate if someone could check it out.

[winter kraken]

cool, this seems like a good start for the next google ceo 🙂

In this day and age when internet bandwidth can be largely considered irrelevant, is there a reason to favour binary serialisation over other methods of serialising like JSON or whatnot? I thought with most games being server-authoritative (through various means) using plaintext methods would not affect anything?

For context: I'm doing some packet analysis for a gacha game (which by TOS is perfectly fine (https://arterygear.biligames.com/termofservice/), and I'm just trying to write a gear dumper for management) and was curious why

Another example for this is LiveOverflow's series on packet analysis for Pwny Adventure. All packets sent between client and server are serialised to binary. Is this security by obscurity, a way to avoid extra dependency and/or overhead, or something else?

im making a neural network for the snake game right now

[old axle]

thats what were aiming for😉

[gritty eagle]

👌🏽

Let me know how it goes

[untold fern]

is that made in python?

[dawn quiver]

Yeah, with a wrapper for SDL2

[untold fern]

not sure what that means but that's impressive that you made that in python

I know modern game studios generally develop in engines with an abstracted graphics API, with low-level graphics implementations for several different platforms so that the platform can be chosen before exporting.
How do game devs using engines without a pre-existing abstracted graphics API convert a project from, say, DirectX to Metal?

[old axle]

how can i make my snake game look like this:

like the lines not touching

cause right now it looks like this

when the snake is touching its body it is stuck together as opposed to having little spaces in between

how can i add the little spaces?

[dawn quiver]

it looks like the green snake game has separate textures for a pair of segments when they connect from left to right and when they connect from top to bottom

and I imagine one would include some exceptions to that like when there's just one block (although you could just start off with two, I think that's how it works in the original actually)

but that would seem to solve the issue, tracking pairs of segments in the game model and displaying a texture based on the direction

[old axle]

how can you tell if the snake is conected by actually being connected or just by being right next to it

also how can would i be able to do the corners

i realtively understand how to do it for two lines parralel to eachother

but the same logic doesnt work for the corners

[dawn quiver]

it should be fine if you can just overlay the textures
if you can't, then you need textures for every type of "single block"

so a bottom-left facing corner, bottom-right facing corner, etc

[old axle]

how can you even tell if a corner if a bottem-left facing corner

[dawn quiver]

I assume you have a model for your game in some sort of class right

[old axle]

yes

[dawn quiver]

so I guess checking each segment of the snake in that would tell you, by checking the connected neighbors

idk the specifics of your class for the snake's abstract model but maybe that helps

[old axle]

so basically ```
if connectedneigbor is rightofblock and direction is up:
draw bottemleftfacingcornerblock

pardon my psdudocode

but soemthing like that ^^^

[dawn quiver]

yeah!! I think so at least

[old axle]

so many possibilies to loop over

[dawn quiver]

I think there are just 6 types of textures (4 corners + left-right + up-down) in the end lol so it would be 6 combos overall

maybe a pain to look at but won't be too bad, u got it gigachad

[old axle]

thanks bb😘

hi guys. I have made a videogame with python called "turtle racer". Pls could you tell me where can I upload it?

[celest breach]

hello, i have a question, i don't know if this is the right channel to ask but im going to ask any ways, so im made a game with pygame and now i want to make it exe with pyinstaller, and i keep getting this error when i run the exe file that pyinstaller gives me

but there is nothing wrong with line 73

[pine plinth]

pyinstaller changed your line numbers

i think, it crashed when you use open(...)

[celest breach]

do you know how to fix that?

[pine plinth]

show code

[celest breach]

ok

[frank field]

Hey @celest breach!

there you go

im a Beginner in python, sorry if its a bit dumb

[pine plinth]

you can spam prints like print(1) print('foo') print('+') and find where your code crashed

[celest breach]

than what do i do when i found it

• how could that help when the whole code works(in pycharm)

[pine plinth]

not every code that works can work inside pyinstaller

[celest breach]

oh than shouldn't the line it crashes be line 73?

[dawn quiver]

No?

They just changed their code after compilation most likely

[pine plinth]

you are probably right :)

[edgy arch]

Hello, my code is now like this:

mouse_x = -pygame.mouse.get_pos()[0]
#Player control takes (move x, move y, x position of mouse cursor)
player.control(0,0,mouse_x)
keys = pygame.key.get_pressed()
if keys[pygame.K_w]:
    player.control(2*math.cos(mouse_x), 2*math.sin(mouse_x), mouse_x)

But when controlling the actual sprite wabbles and it does not go in the same direction in which I rotate it. Is anything strange in the code? I would like to use math formulas. (Not actual vectors in Pygame).

Thanks.

Taking suggestions on what to add to my Chernobyl based game

[quasi patrol]

anyone want to join my pyweek team

?

[quasi patrol]

radition meter so that the longer your there the radition goes up and when it reachs 100% you die

[dawn quiver]

Ok

[quasi patrol]

good idea?

[dawn quiver]

Ye

I really didn't think about it

[quasi patrol]

cool

You could make like a race against the clock and

I don't feel like making it able to import other python scripts

hey so im not sure where to go but i dont know any coding and id like to learn how to code for game development, personally i have a super short attention spam but i really would like to learn how to, im not sure how to familiarize myself with coding in a way thats more streamline

(what i do know is from my 7,8 grade classes when we did c++

[dawn quiver]

Search up pygame for beginners on YouTube great tutorials

[cerulean citrus]

guys

has anyone experienced panda3d

?

In case, do you know how to increase the quality of the textures and smoothen polygons instead of that bad quality

[dawn quiver]

Hello

If you plan on using python and presumably a game framework/library that you can use with it, you need to familiarize yourself with python itself first

Understanding the libraries and frameworks becomes way more doable

How do I create grids like this?

[stable lion]

best way is using a image like this.You can also creat with pygame.draw.rect()

[dawn quiver]

Ok i use pygame.draw.rect

[stable lion]

but the rects of this image has gray grids so you should make rectangles by using pygame.draw.line() but i do not recommend

[dawn quiver]

ok thx
