1 PM – Python Game Development

Today:

• We went over the homework to add the shield powerup.
• We fixed the turret to point directly at the mouse by referencing the center of the turret.
• We went over the technique to rotate the turret correctly bytes  referencing the center of the turret.

Homework:

• Create a new sprite class “Shield” using the “Get_Shield_Player_1.png” image.
• Add a method handle_tank_shield_powerup_collision.  When the player tank collides with the shield powerup, make the shield appear on the screen.
• When it appears, make the shield appear the same location as the player tank.  Keep the location of the shield synced with the location of the player tank.
