I'm a newbie and following along to this tutorial to create a little endless runner in pygame. I'm finished with the code and now I want to add some polish, ie a sound that plays when the player collides with an object.
However, the code isn't working and I cannot figure out why. I've attempted tried to google it to little avail and I've implemented this suggestion and it's not working.
Here's what I have:
class Player(pygame.sprite.Sprite):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
player_walk_1 = pygame.image.load('Praxislabor/assets/graphics/pig_og.png').convert_alpha() # initialize once, "self." can get called later
player_walk_1 = pygame.transform.scale2x(player_walk_1)
player_walk_2 = pygame.image.load('Praxislabor/assets/graphics/pig1_og.png').convert_alpha()
player_walk_2 = pygame.transform.scale2x(player_walk_2)
self.player_walk = [player_walk_1, player_walk_2]
self.player_index = 0
self.player_jump = pygame.image.load('Praxislabor/assets/graphics/pig1_og.png').convert_alpha()
self.player_jump = pygame.transform.scale2x(self.player_jump)
self.image = self.player_walk[self.player_index]
self.rect = self.image.get_rect(bottomleft = (5, 268))
self.gravity = 0
self.jump_sound = pygame.mixer.Sound('Praxislabor/assets/audio/jump.wav')
self.jump_sound.set_volume(0.8)
def player_input(self):
keys = pygame.key.get_pressed()
if keys[pygame.K_SPACE] and self.rect.bottom >= 268:
self.gravity = -15
self.jump_sound.play()
def apply_gravity(self):
self.gravity += 1
self.rect.y += self.gravity
if self.rect.bottom >= 268:
self.rect.bottom = 268
def animation_state(self):
if self.rect.bottom > 268:
self.image = self.player_jump
else:
self.player_index += 0.1
if self.player_index >= len(self.player_walk):
self.player_index = 0
self.image = self.player_walk[int(self.player_index)]
def update(self):
self.player_input()
self.apply_gravity()
self.animation_state()
class Obstacle(pygame.sprite.Sprite):
def __init__(self,type):
super().__init__()
if type == 'bird':
bird_frame_1 = pygame.image.load('Praxislabor/assets/graphics/birb1.png').convert_alpha()
bird_frame_1 = pygame.transform.scale2x(bird_frame_1)
bird_frame_1 = pygame.transform.flip(bird_frame_1, 180, 0)
bird_frame_2 = pygame.image.load('Praxislabor/assets/graphics/birb2.png').convert_alpha()
bird_frame_2 = pygame.transform.scale2x(bird_frame_2)
bird_frame_2 = pygame.transform.flip(bird_frame_2, 180, 0)
self.frames = [bird_frame_1, bird_frame_2]
y_pos = 230
else:
if type == 'box':
box1_surface = pygame.image.load('Praxislabor/assets/graphics/box1_og.png').convert_alpha()
box1_surface = pygame.transform.scale2x(box1_surface)
self.frames = [box1_surface]
y_pos = 250
self.animation_index = 0
self.image = self.frames[self.animation_index]
self.rect = self.image.get_rect(midbottom = (randint(900,1100),y_pos))
def animation_state(self):
self.animation_index += 0.1
if self.animation_index >= len(self.frames):
self.animation_index = 0
self.image = self.frames[int(self.animation_index)]
def update(self):
self.animation_state()
self.rect.x -= 6
self.destroy()
def destroy(self):
if self.rect.x <= -100:
self.kill()
And later where the problem lies:
def display_score():
current_time = int(pygame.time.get_ticks() / 1000) - start_time # get ticks as int, divide to only display smaller numbers, substract play time
score_surface = font.render(f'Score: {current_time}', False, '#536E75') # f string converts integer to string
score_rect = score_surface.get_rect(topleft = (5, 5))
screen.blit(score_surface, score_rect)
return current_time
def collisions(player, obstacles):
collision_sound = pygame.mixer.Sound('Praxislabor/assets/audio/collision.wav')
if obstacles:
for obstacle_rect in obstacles:
if player.colliderect(obstacle_rect):
collision_sound.play()
return False
return True
def collision_sprite():
if pygame.sprite.spritecollide(player.sprite,obstacle_group,False): # sprite, group, boolean
obstacle_group.empty()
return False
else:
return True
The if player.colliderect(obstacle_rect) does nothing, though I tried an earlier version that didn't have the classes yet, and THEN it works.
