I am having trouble having a rectangle jumping only when it touches a platform. I have tried putting an if-statement within the jump method stating if the rectangle is colliding with any of the blocks within the block list for the rectangle to b able to jump but still has not worked.

def keydown_events(self, event):
    """This method handles keydown events."""
    if event.key == pygame.K_ESCAPE:
        exit()
    if event.key == pygame.K_SPACE:
            self.jump()

def jump(self):
    """This method controls the player's jump."""
    jump = pygame.key.get_pressed()
    if jump[pygame.K_SPACE]:
        self.player.vel.y = -self.settings.jump_height

def collide(self):
    for each in self.map.blocks:
        if self.player.rect.colliderect(each):
            self.player.pos.y = each.top + 1
            self.player.vel.y = 0
            if self.player.vel.x < 0:
                self.player.rect.left = each.right
            elif self.player.vel.x > 0:
                self.player.rect.right = each.right

  • why are you checking in the `jump` function if `SPACE` has been pressed? the function gets called only if the spacebar is pressed already. Also you haven't shown what you attempted. usually you would just have some flag like `can_jump` and set it to True when a collision happens and to False when there is no collision – Matiiss Nov 15 '21 at 19:46
