Following the Tutorial by Michael Dawson and the previous web help from Liam Clark, I have a basic Othello Game up and running quite well.

I now want to start the game with a set of instructions that stays on the screen until the user is ready to proceed. Since you are only allowed one screen, I am now confused as to how I can accomplish this.

My program starts by defining global constants SCREEN_WIDTH = 1024 and SCREEN_HEIGHT=768 and THE_SCREEN = games.Screen(SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT)

Then after writing all the classes, sprites etc I define main() as follows:

 

def main():

my_screen = THE_SCREEN

board_image=games.load_image(OthelloImage.jpg”)

my_screen.set_background(board_image)

 

# then I create some board pieces etc and end with

my_screen.mainloop()

 

main()

Thank you for any help.

Gene
