Re: [pygame] Shining Sea source code
My entry for pyweek was similar in idea to your missions game, but everyone hated the grating marching sound effect... I suppose the base stuff is also more sim* than civilization as well though. We also failed in that you never got a report of what happened on the mission, you just see how many of the team members come back (if at all!). But I've wanted games around this mechanic for a while. You can check it out here: http://media.pyweek.org/dl/4/cent_of_fb/cent_of_fb_0.99.zip It's very alpha and needs some work to be a real game :( A week limit and all... As for shining sea, it's a nice little demo! The music is fun, but looks like it's been stolen :) The island is a bit big and empty, and the objects are not sorted correctly. You need to sort the onscreen objects based on y-value so that when the character is in front or behind something it displays right. I like where your going with this though, I like any game that requires eating, ha ha. Also, as far as I can tell without looking at code, you are generating the tilemap from the minimap, which is very cool.

Hmm... the music is in MIDI; does Ubuntu's Pygame support that? That could be it. I'm pretty sure this dinky laptop soundcard doesn't have any MIDI capability of its own, and today's Linux systems don't provide a software synthesizer out of the box (you can get one, but only if you run it manually). *tests* Yes, that was it. I renamed the 'music' directory so the game wouldn't find it, and I had no problems after that.

You probably need to turn antialiasing on, because your computer doesn't like drawing without antialiasing.

[pygame] Shining Sea source code
A version with source code: http://kschnee.xepher.net/code/070530ShiningSeaSource.zip Regardless of the actual license info in those files, you have my permission to treat the code as GPL, if there's anything in there you actually want. The main worldsim thing (nutshell_basic.py) would be the most useful, if the core of the collision code (the physics of what happens when a collision happens) were improved. Also, at http://kschnee.xepher.net/code/mission.py.txt I put up an experiment with a related idea. What actually works in there is a little game mechanic where characters help each other out with dice rolls.

Re: [pygame] 'Shining Sea' source code
I had to change all font.render() calls to enable anti-aliasing, to sidestep a bug in Ubuntu's pygame (segmentation faults when rendering non-anti-aliased spaces). The game starts, but I cannot control anything. I believe you mentioned W, A, S, D keys? Nothing happens. When I kill the game, I get this traceback: if pygame.mixer.music.get_busy(): KeyboardInterrupt (BTW there's no sound or music.) I restarted the game and immediatly clicked New Game and couldn't move. Ah... I never heard sound or music. This is weird! It runs on my machine, on Windows. How about if you insert the line print 'I should be jumping' after line 548 of the main program, Shining Sea.py? That should print a message every time you hit Space to jump. And how about the RightShift and Enter keys; do they do anything? There should be visual and sound effects in all three cases. At the top of the program I've got: CONTROLS_UP = K_w And in the main loop (Game.WanderingScreen) it says (excerpted): done = False while not done: ## Handle physics. self.SimulationStep() ## Handle events. keys_pressed = pygame.key.get_pressed() ## Keys that're down. for event in pygame.event.get(): if event.type == QUIT: done = True elif event.type == KEYDOWN: if event.key == K_ESCAPE: done = True self.game_state = Title Screen elif event.key == CONTROLS_JUMP: self.player.Jump() Conch.j.PlaySound(jump) ## Allow the player to move in 8 directions using the arrow keys. move_x, move_y = 0, 0 if keys_pressed[ CONTROLS_UP ]: move_y = 1 (Etc.) So, in theory, if you're pressing the W key when pygame.key.get_pressed() is called, then keys_pressed[ CONTROLS_UP ] should be True, which should trigger movement. And it does on my machine. I made the ZIP file directly from a working set of code and just zipped up the whole directory, with all the music etc.. Is there some reason the code wouldn't be portable? Hmm... the music is in MIDI; does Ubuntu's Pygame support that? The sound code is in Conch.py, which is included and normally works. I notice I have a copy of it in C:\Python24; could that have something to do with it working on my machine, as little sense as that makes? Another hypothesis: something about the line self.clock.tick(15). If the clock were somehow off, then the worldsim's time_interval variable would be messed up. Movement only happens when game-time passes. Even if no time is passing, there should still be a walking animation when you use WASD.
