trying to draw a sprite to a screen using pygame, and keep running into this error:

AttributeError: 'Player' object has no attribute 'image'

here's my code:

import pygame

pygame.init()
class Player(pygame.sprite.Sprite):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.knight_image = pygame.image.load(r'pkmnclone\brackeys_platformer_assets\sprites\knight - Copy.png')
        self.knight_rect = self.knight_image.get_rect(center = (960, 540))


screen = pygame.display.set_mode((1920, 1080))
clock = pygame.time.Clock()
pygame.display.set_caption('Pokemon Clone')

game_active = True
bg = pygame.image.load(r'pkmnclone\Glacial-mountains-parallax-background_vnitti\background_glacial_mountains.png')
bg = pygame.transform.scale(bg, (1920,1080))


#groups
knight = pygame.sprite.GroupSingle()
knight.add(Player())
while True:
    for event in pygame.event.get():
        if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
            pygame.quit()
            exit

    if game_active:
        screen.blit(bg, (0,0))
        knight.draw(screen)
        pygame.display.update() #updates screen to show new elements
        clock.tick(60)

here u go sorry for the delay

fickle goblet
#

Yeah that's what I suspected

#

self.knight_image / self.knight_rect should be self.image / self.rect instead

dense swift
#

but why?

#

do sprite attributes specifically need to be named those things?

fickle goblet

okay that clears a lot up

#
