7 PM – Advanced Python Game Development

Today

• We started the tank game project.
• We added a PlayerTank sprite and got it moving on the screen.
• I’ve uploaded the source code here.

Homework:

• Currently we only have an images_right attribute.  Add 3 more attributes, images_up, images_left, and images down which should contain the tank chassey facing the correct directions.  You can transform an image to rotate it 90 degrees counter-clockwise with this function:

  • pygame.transform.rotate(l_image, 90)

• Add another sprite for the bricks.  You can use the file “Brick.png”
• Put the Tank turret on top of the tank chassey.  You can use the “PlayerTank_2_1_Turret_0” image, don’t need any animation yet but the position of the turret should be in sync with the tank chassey as it moves.
