So can someone connect me with the person or persons who are in charge of the pygame.org site to get Pygame news posted? I really want to see Pygame get some love, and I'd be willing to help. ~ Michael On Wed : May 21, 2014 11:05:19 PM you wrote: > I'd like to get this piece of news on the Pyg

Re: [pygame] Scaling the hitbox/rect of a sprite

Thanks guys, your solutions work fine. I didn't realize that the collided callback function automatically gets the two sprites as input. -- View this message in context: http://pygame-users.25799.x6.nabble.com/pygame-Scaling-the-hitbox-rect-of-a-sprite-tp1227p1242.html Sent from the pygame-use
