Thank you all!!!! you are helping me so much. I thought i was pretty proficient
in pygame so im very sorry for my 'stupid' questions but i cannot for the life
of me figure this one out. I made all the neceesary changes and ive blitted
correctly i think but i keep getting... KeyError: 4
import pygame
pygame.init()
import sys,random,os
from pygame.locals import*
from Classes import Arrow
clock=pygame.time.Clock()
clock.tick(30)
def main_menu():
menuclock=pygame.time.Clock()
clock.tick(30)
menuscreen=pygame.display.set_mode((640, 480))#FULLSCREEN
pygame.display.set_caption('Dog Fight')
#pygame.mouse.set_visible(False)
WHITE=(255,255,255)
BLACK=(0,0,0)
GREEN=(0,255,0)
BLUE=(0,0,255)
background=pygame.image.load('data/background.png')
lasersound=pygame.mixer.Sound('data/lasershot.wav')
arrow=pygame.image.load('data/arrow.png')
menuscreen.blit(background,(0,0))
arrowpos = { 0 : (100,20) , 1:(100,40) , 2:(100,60) , 3 :(100,60) }
def dostuff():
print('Hi')
menu='go'
counter = 0
menuscreen.blit(arrow,arrowpos[counter])
while menu == "go":
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type == QUIT:
pygame.quit()
sys.exit()
if event.type == KEYDOWN:
if event.key == K_ESCAPE:
menu = "off"
if event.key == K_UP:
if counter > 0:
counter -= 1
menuscreen.blit(arrow,arrowpos[counter])
if event.key == K_DOWN:
if counter < 4:
counter += 1
menuscreen.blit(arrow,arrowpos[counter])
if event.key == K_RETURN:
return counter
pygame.display.update()
main_menu()
THANK YOU!!!!!
