idk how you would using this program. But I'm sure you know where to go
If it works like this documentation says it does, then I expect a part of your grade to be credited to me. A random on the internet.

Hello. I want to write a fish bot in Stardew Valley. To catch fish, you need to go through a mini-game. The fish must always be in a green triangle so that the scale is full and the fish are caught. How can I implement yu so that the fish always follows a green rectangle? Could you please tell me (

Find a python library that let's you do inputs. Then code a series of movements to take the character from your farm to the desired fishing spot. Do some code to read a 1 pixel vertical line in the fishing meter, then use this pixel data to determine if you need to do more clicks or less in the desired spot. Finally code your character to after a set time return home. Added bonus for coding the bot to not break with events, to sell fish, and to update best fishing spot each season.
So now you know all the big steps, find that library and figure it out! Goodluck

Also this is a bit more advanced and probably requires brainstorming rather than a pythonic solution but, I'm making a game where the players has stats, example:
120 Speed
100 Strength
250 Agility
130 Endurance
And each fight has 3 random difficulties (Easy, Normal, Hard) I was thinking of generating monsters stats by like:
Count total player stats (speed+strength+agility+endurance)/2 = base stats of the monster then the other half randomly generated, this way the monster stats are always different each fight, so is his hp / damage.
Issue is that I needed to find a balance so that vs normal difficulty players would have ~50-70% chance of winning and vs Hard 25-35% Chance, I'm just not too sure how to go about this if anyone ever worked on a similar project.
(I know I can just roll dice and see who "wins" but I wanted to simulate like, monsters dealt xxx Damage - Player HP= XXXX, Player dealth xxx damage to monster, Monster HP = XXXX, etc)

async def music(filename):
playsound(filename)
#### MAIN Function
await music(filename)
might work not sure
need to test it out
or just make the playsound an async function
and u can just "await playsound(filename)" directly
if ur game stops it means u got something blocking the code
brisk pilot
Also this is a bit more advanced and probably requires brainstorming rather than...
Difficulty is normally implemented as a modifier that impacts the enemy stat's. For example for hard the modified might be 1.5, so each (or selected stats) get increased by some difficulty specific amount.
Then you maintain your one defined monster and keep things simple.

it necessary to use pygame.display.flip() at end of every code?
and also pygame.quit()
patent urchin
yes
like make the window stop only when you press the cross button and not automatically, you must put the pygame.quit() at the end of the closing condition
which is mostly like this:
running = True
while running:
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
pygame.quit()

it necessary to use pygame.display.flip() at end of every code?
this is for updating the screen
for example you blitted a picture on the screen, you must pygame.display.flip() at the end to show it on the screen

i think it might be the logic of the arrow's speed
ya and you just have made the self.velocity.y but not the self.velocity.x
so you should do this
self.velocity.y += (gravity/self.velocity.x)
and
self.velocity.x += <any speed>
patent urchin
ya and you just have made the self.velocity.y but not the self.velocity.x
that is why your this program:
self.rect = self.rect.move(self.velocity)
just makes it move very rigid and close

rocky herald
self.velocity.x += <any speed>
So any constant value?
patent urchin
yep
rocky herald
ok
patent urchin
did it work?
frank fieldBOT
Hey @rocky herald!
rocky herald
proper peak
self.velocity.y += (gravity/self.velocity.x)
self.velocity.y += (gravity/self.velocity.x)
so... if the horizontal velocity is close to zero, the arrow will be yanked down with infinite acceleration? That's some strange movement laws.
rocky herald
The arrow is shooting properly now
can you check the collision
Its inside arrow class
patent urchin
ok
patent urchin
can you check the collision
ok will try
patent urchin
> `self.velocity.y += (gravity/self.velocity.x)`
so... if the horizontal velocit...
that is where it must be designed to stop, see if your y level is 0, just make the arrow stop
so it will look exactly like an arrow being shot
proper peak
how's that related to the horizontal velocity though
I mean, if you shoot the arrow up, this would mean it would instantly land
patent urchin
can you check the collision
and now for the collision, i will tell the exact solution after a bit of think ok? but till then, i will tell you my experience with using this, you need to create a logic for checking whether the x and y position is equal to the object's or something like that
patent urchin
how's that related to the horizontal velocity though
how? i told, if the y level == 0; arrow.stop (for example) and if y level == (top y level); arrow.stop
and by zero i mean the bottom level
not the actual zero
ok fine
let me rewrite
say for example the screen resolution is 1280 x 720
then
proper peak
I'm saying that the acceleration per unit of time due to gravity should be constant.
patent urchin
if level == 0 or level == 720; arrow.stop
proper peak
Not dependent on anything, and certainly not inversely dependent on horizontal speed. That'd mean that the faster you move, the lower gravity affects you - that's not the case.
patent urchin
I'm saying that the acceleration per unit of time due to gravity should be const...
ok that way, i wrote that because he was using the velocity not as speed but for finding the next location of the arrow, so i told him to move the arrow downwards every next time by the division of gravity by self.velocity.x
rocky herald
and now for the collision, i will tell the exact solution after a bit of think o...
Yah, I checked their rect values
patent urchin
and it works fine as he says
patent urchin
Yah, I checked their rect values
yes
so now create a logic
for me, i was trying with buttons
so
if Xpos < mousePosX < Xpos + Width:
if Ypos < mousePosY < Ypos + Height:
hover = True
else:
hover = False
else:
hover = False
rocky herald
Yah exactly
patent urchin
this was my logic for the button
rocky herald
this also I used
patent urchin
but, you are using a circular balloon
rocky herald
elliptical balloon
patent urchin
ya sorta
patent urchin
ya i checked
rocky herald
It has x, y, a ,b
aka, x, y, width height
you are saying something like this:
if (x < pos[0] < x + a) and (y < pos[1] < y + b):
return True
rocky herald
This is a function already there
patent urchin
but that works better for rectangular shapes
rocky herald
def onBalloon(x, y, a, b, pos):
if (x < pos[0] < x + a) and (y < pos[1] < y + b):
return True
else:
return False
patent urchin
because else it will check the circle like this
rocky herald
def burst(self, balloon):
if onBalloon(balloon.x, balloon.y, balloon.a, balloon.b, self.rect):
balloon.reset()
score+=1
Then I called this
Still not working
I tried both methods
I figured out the problem
The arrow position is always static
I will show you a example
arrow
<rect(550, 350, 100, 100)>
balloon
<rect(134, 500, 35, 43)>
arrow
<rect(550, 350, 100, 100)>
balloon
<rect(412, 500, 30, 31)>
arrow
<rect(550, 350, 100, 100)>
balloon
<rect(320, 500, 31, 36)>
arrow
<rect(550, 350, 100, 100)>
balloon
See
patent urchin
this is what it will check the balloon as
rocky herald
Yes
But if the arrow is static the how can it ever collide
the cooredinates
not the arrow image
rocky herald
So I am not understanding that
patent urchin
according to me, you must create sort of a hit box
rocky herald
how can I get the runnning coordinate
patent urchin
an imaginary one
patent urchin
how can I get the runnning coordinate
it will make this easier
patent urchin
how about this
rocky herald
it will make this easier
Can you show in the code
it will be better for me to understand
patent urchin
we only want the tip to touch the balloon
rocky herald
not always tip
patent urchin
it will be better for me to understand
i will but first let me discuss in theory
rocky herald
sometimes a little below the tip
patent urchin
not always tip
then how will it serve as an arrow
rocky herald
sometimes a little below the tip
ok
patent urchin
um can you show your arrow?
rocky herald
then how will it serve as an arrow
Oh sorry, I meant the tip of the balloon
patent urchin
in the game
rocky herald
in the game
screenshot?
patent urchin
the arrow's tip is only to be touched
patent urchin
screenshot?
yes
rocky herald
yah exactly
patent urchin
the arrow's tip is only to be touched
so, if only there was a way to find the location of the tip
i would say
create two different classes
one Arrow-Body
rocky herald
rocky herald
This is the pic
patent urchin
that could be sort of easy
patent urchin
This is the pic
yes i saw
rocky herald
that could be sort of easy
yup
patent urchin
create two parts of arrow
and then have a function
tip_pos() -> position of arrow tip as tuple
patent urchin
ok
rocky herald
I have very difficulty solved the shooting problem
patent urchin
see i have been through this entirely changing of program, but in classes and objects in some cases, these need to happen, but for safety store the program in another file
rocky herald
now tell me what to write in the arrow tip and body function
patent urchin
um
body will determine, the movement speed
and
tip will determine, the touch, and will be stuck to the body's front part
and you dont need to write everything, use the back up to take in all the logics back
hey i have an idea
for the hitbox
how about
rocky herald
and you dont need to write everything, use the back up to take in all the logics...
yah doing that
patent urchin
we simply create a line (transparent and imaginary, not to be printed on screen) tangent to the arrow's uppermost tip
rocky herald
ok
patent urchin
then it will be simple rectangular touching logic
if it touches, well and good
and if not
then
um..
i mean, if the rectangle is touching the balloon, well and good, else do another try
rocky herald
class ArrowBody:
def init(self, pos, velocity):
self.velocity = velocity
self.image = pygame.image.load('balloonshooter/arrow.png')
self.image = pygame.transform.scale(self.image, [100, 100]) # make the image a bit smaller
self.rect = self.image.get_rect(center = pos)
#self.rect.center = pos
self.available = True
def move(self):
#if not self.availible:
# self.velocity.y += gravity # apply gravity
self.rect.x += self.velocity[0]
self.rect.y += self.velocity[1]
Can you add to this
rocky herald
ofcourse the body will also have velocity
patent urchin
the tip will have different image
ok but you could also do this, to have a cleaner image
make the tip with no image at all
it is the imaginary rectangle
rocky herald
yah that can be the imaginary rectangle
patent urchin
yes
now it will be more easier
so make the body have all same logic for the movement
and the tip will be a rectangle
with width 0
rocky herald
what to write in arrowtip class
patent urchin
do this
rocky herald
ok
patent urchin
I need not touch the body, right?
it must touch the uppermost part of the arrow
rocky herald
for that I will need the coordinates of the tip
patent urchin
make the imaginary tip be blitted on the screen at the X, Y pos of the arrow but X+length
patent urchin
the resized one yes
the one which is in the game that is needed
placid mortar
does everyone know how i can make a rpc for my game or software in python?
rocky herald
the one which is in the game that is needed
Yah that only
rocky herald
make the imaginary tip be blitted on the screen at the X, Y pos of the arrow but...
length??
patent urchin
length??
length of?
ya so
the length is needed right
you will be blitting the tip like this
the Xpos of the arrow's body + its Width (ya not length)
it is width not length my bad
rocky herald
the Xpos of the arrow's body + its Width (ya not length)
yah that is why I asked
patent urchin
anyways the value is same only
rocky herald
okay let me create the class
rocky herald
how to create a transparent rectangle?
patent urchin
ya
rocky herald
pygame.draw.rect(surface, color, pygame.Rect(30, 30, 60, 60), 2)
rocky herald
class ArrowTip:
def init(self):
self.x = 200
self.y = 100
pygame.draw.rect(surface, (255,255,255), pygame.Rect(self.x, self.y, 0, 60), 2)
Is this fine
?
patent urchin
um
but this will create a white line
and also
we need it to be 0 width the rectangle
rocky herald
no even when I changed the color its not showing
patent urchin
which will check if it has been touched by balloon
patent urchin
no even when I changed the color its not showing
oh
rocky herald
yah
patent urchin
um lol?
frank fieldBOT
Hey @rocky herald!
rocky herald
ok
patent urchin
see
in line 199
do
pygame.draw.rect(display, (0,0,255), pygame.Rect(self.x+widthofArrowBody, self.y, 0, 60))
patent urchin
now check
rocky herald
self.x = 200
patent urchin
ya
rocky herald
self.y = 100
rocky herald
self.x+100
yah now self.x ia 200
patent urchin
where it needs to be drawn on screen
rocky herald
as you said
rocky herald
class ArrowTip:
def init(self):
self.x = 200
self.y = 100
pygame.draw.rect(display, (0,0,255), pygame.Rect(self.x+100, self.y, 0, 60))
nope, not working
rocky herald
I created the object just below it
patent urchin
i will come back in 5 minutes after a thorough research
rocky herald
sure
patent urchin
I created the object just below it
that does not matter at all
rocky herald
no problem
rocky herald
that does not matter at all
yah true
patent urchin
you just have one file right?
rocky herald
yah
patent urchin
ok
true cedar
yo how to make a player press a button everytime they wanna do something not hold it down but press it
patent urchin
yo how to make a player press a button everytime they wanna do something not hol...
pretty easy, i have made a class on it
patent urchin
yah
@rocky herald i need those images of the arrows
um
it wont work or else right?
true cedar
in pygame btw
frank fieldBOT
Hey @rocky herald!
rocky herald
@patent urchin these are the images
true cedar
wait so you made a class? on how to do the thing?
patent urchin
um can you wait for approx 10-25 minutes, i gotta speak with my parents for something lol
patent urchin
ok
patent urchin
<@!756803509508112476> these are the images
thanks
hey
i have a question
@rocky herald what are these:
libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile
libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile
where have you mentioned that srgb profile?
rocky herald
These are just warning
patent urchin
no i know
patent urchin
where have you mentioned that srgb profile?
this is what i am asking
rocky herald
no no
patent urchin
no no?
patent urchin
but when i am clicking
the target
is going
i mean
the color i think is messing up there
rocky herald
which color?
patent urchin
see here
rocky herald
the arrow tip?
patent urchin
i am sending a video after some time
rocky herald
ok
patent urchin
so what did you do to solve?
because i have done some modifications in the motion
as well as the Arrow tip
rocky herald
I am not sure what are those about, these happen when the arrow and the bow images are loaded
patent urchin
I am not sure what are those about, these happen when the arrow and the bow imag...
ok
rocky herald
yah
patent urchin
so how did you solve
rocky herald
if the remove the images then no warning
patent urchin
lol
rocky herald
so how did you solve
those are just there
patent urchin
ok
rocky herald
pygame.Rect
patent urchin
so which one of this in the arrow is the width
rocky herald
arrow
<rect(550, 350, 100, 100)>
balloon
<rect(581, 500, 31, 35)>
It goes like this, x, y, width, height
so 100
rocky herald
I am not sure what is the underlying data structure for pygame.Rect
patent urchin
ok
rocky herald
If its a list then it might
patent urchin
ok fine
rocky herald
Is the arrow tip showing on the screen?
rocky herald
yah its 0,0,0
patent urchin
ya i tried doing some changes
i have a better solution
do this
create a blank image
and i would recommend gimp
for this
create a 10x1 transparent image
rocky herald
I can do it in opencv
patent urchin
no no
not like thhat
create a transparent image in gimp and then blit it as the arrow tip
rocky herald
I will have to download gimp
patent urchin
yes do it
patent urchin
um it is necessary
rocky herald
ok
rocky herald
Why can't you just create a rectangle
patent urchin
i am not talking about me, i have never seen a rectangle drawn in pygame
which is transparent
rocky herald
ohk
patent urchin
i have always seen and worked with colorful rectangles
rocky herald
yah it can be done
rocky herald
what if the rectangle is the same color as lightBlue = (174, 214, 241)
patent urchin
because 0, 0, 0 is black
rocky herald
because background is lightblue
patent urchin
um it will become visible when passing a balloon of some other color
rocky herald
also can add
patent urchin
it is best to blit it, it is the fastest way (during runtime) and also better way
patent urchin
0.5?
rocky herald
transparency
patent urchin
will try
right now
it actually might have worked
but the srgb profile is still there
rocky herald
I too don't know
But it is a warning
there is no reason why the rect is not showing
patent urchin
um it completely kills the process
rocky herald
gimp will take a lot of time to download, given my network, and if it does my ram id far too weak to handle it, I think
rocky herald
ok
patent urchin
anything but a 10x1 pixel transparent image
rocky herald
In paint its like this
patent urchin
no
it must be transparent
i am telling you, it is better with gimp or if you can find some app in the internet
see i got this
see
rocky herald
yah this I got
rocky herald
as in blit this?
