im very new to python, and im currently at chapter 12 on Python Crash Course.
it asks me to build an alien invasion game, and im stuck at this point where I wrote exactly what it said on the book, and tried exactly what YouTube Travis Pugh said in his tutorial on this chapter (his code works fine in the video) (https://youtu.be/WB8i9cseVT8), my pygame window jumps out and disappear immediately.
could anybody please help me ?
here's Travis Pugh's code(there's no changes to the class Settings):
(first file is ship.py)
import pygame
class Ship:
def __init__(self, ai_game):
"""initialize the ship, set its starting location"""
self.screen = ai_game.screen
self.screen_rect = ai_game.screen.get_rect()
#load the ship image, get its rectangle
self.image = pygame.image.load('images/ship.bmp')
self.rect = self.image.get_rect()
#start each new ship at the bottom center of the screen
self.rect.midbottom = self.screen_rect.midbottom
def blitme(self):
"""draw the ship at its current location"""
self.screen.blit(self.image, self.rect)
(second file is alien_invasion.py)
import sys
import pygame
from settings import Settings
from ship import Ship
class AlienInvasion:
def __init__(self):
"""initialize the game and create game resources"""
pygame.init()
self.settings = Settings()
self.screen = pygame.display.set_mode((self.settings.screen_width,self.settings.screen_height))
pygame.display.set_caption("Alien Invasion")
self.ship = Ship(self)
#set background color
self.bg_color = (230,230,230)
def run_game(self):
"""start the main loop for the game"""
while True:
# watch for keyboard and mouse events
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
sys.exit()
#redraw the screen during each pass through the loop
self.screen.fill(self.settings.bg_color)
self.ship.blitme()
#make the most recently drawn screen visible
pygame.display.flip()
if __name__ == '__main__':
#make a game instance, and run the game
ai = AlienInvasion()
ai.run_game()
