I'm currently attempting to add walls to my game that can be destroyed by both the players laser and the aliens bombs. Currently when drawing my wall to screen, it is just a single broken up line, instead of the expected shape.
This is my first time using enumerate, and I followed along with Clear Codes Youtube video and from what I can tell my code should in theory be producing the desired shape.
What my wall currently looks like
walls.py
import pygame
from pygame.sprite import Sprite
class Wall(Sprite):
"""A class to define our wall"""
def __init__(self, size, color, x, y):
super().__init__()
self.image = pygame.Surface((size, size))
self.image.fill(color)
self.rect = self.image.get_rect(topleft = (x, y))
shape = [
' xxxxxxx'
' xxxxxxxxx'
'xxxxxxxxxxx'
'xxxxxxxxxxx'
'xxxxxxxxxxx'
'xxx xxx'
'xx xx']
main.py
import walls
class AlienInvasion:
"""Overall class to manage game assets and behavior."""

"""Initlize the game, and create game resources."""
pygame.init()
self.settings = Settings()
self.screen = pygame.display.set_mode((0, 0), pygame.FULLSCREEN)
self.settings.screen_width = self.screen.get_rect().width
self.settings.screen_height = self.screen.get_rect().height
pygame.display.set_caption("Alien Invasion")
self.stats = GameStats(self)
self.sb = Scoreboard(self)
self.ship = Ship(self)

self.block_size = 6
self.blocks = pygame.sprite.Group()
def _create_walls(self, x_start, y_start):
for row_index, row in enumerate(self.shape):
for col_index, col in enumerate(row):
if col == 'x':
x = x_start + col_index * self.block_size
y = y_start + row_index * self.block_size
block = walls.Wall(self.block_size, (255, 255, 255),
x, y)
self.blocks.add(block)
def _update_screen(self):
"""Update images on screen and flip to the new screen."""
#fill our background with our bg_color
self.screen.fill(self.settings.bg_color)
# draw scoreboard to screen

#draw ship to screen
self.ship.blitme()

self.continue_button.draw_button()

#this clears our previous screen and updates it to a new one
#this gives our programe smooth movemnt
pygame.display.flip()
