I'd like to know if there's a way to blit an image above my grid tiles and keep a gray border (i.e. I'd like to remove the parts of the image that are on top of the gray/blank areas of my grid). I'm trying to avoid having individual images for each grid tile, thanks!
import pygame
TILESIZE = 22
margin = 1
BOARD_POS = (10, 10)
def create_board_surf():
board_surf = pygame.Surface((TILESIZE * 50 + margin * 51, TILESIZE * 26 + margin * 27))
board_surf.set_colorkey((0, 0, 0))
board_surf.set_alpha(250)
for row in range(26):
for column in range(0, 25):
color = (170, 70, 70)
rect = pygame.draw.rect(screen, color, [(margin + TILESIZE) * column + margin, (margin + TILESIZE) * row + margin, TILESIZE, TILESIZE])
pygame.draw.rect(board_surf, pygame.Color(color), rect)
for column in range(25, 50):
color = (70, 95, 195)
rect = pygame.draw.rect(screen, color, [(margin + TILESIZE) * column + margin, (margin + TILESIZE) * row + margin, TILESIZE, TILESIZE])
pygame.draw.rect(board_surf, pygame.Color(color), rect)
water = pygame.image.load("water_6.png")
water = pygame.transform.smoothscale(water, (TILESIZE * 60 + margin * 52, TILESIZE * 29 + margin * 27))
water.set_alpha(40)
board_surf.blit(water, (-80, -30))
return board_surf
def create_board():
board = []
for row in range(26):
board.append([])
for column in range(50):
board[row].append(None)
return board
def main():
global screen
pygame.init()
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((1200, 650))

while True:

board_surf = create_board_surf()
