Remember to:

  • Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
  • Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
  • Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

show code if possible

#

I hate this code

#

Now it works

#

It used to not work

#

Right after

#

Damn

#

…

inner sphinx
#

Could it be some random generated value causing an infinite loop? Are you using random? Did you use any controls right before the last time it froze?

#

Try to break down in as much detail las you can what led up to the freeze, and was the whole window frozen (you can't close with the x button) or just the graphics?

And/or show the code since we could probably identify what's blocking in your code.

The code is working now but I will try to make a pygame I usually do basic etc

Who knows, it might freeze again

Maybe

Just remember that you can't do lots of work on the UI thread. You can't have loops that run for a long time doing lots of work or things like waiting for network calls. Everything you do on the UI thread needs to be as fast as possible, or else the UI doesn't have an opportunity to respond to clicks and such.
