pymunk + pygame ball sandbox game (dev)

[brendonMilligan]

I installed it but when I tried to open it, it said repair or delete and I repaired it then opened it and it said repair or delete again

Wow, very cool, I am trying to do some experiment like this, but I am no way so advanced. Is it possible to see the source code? Anyway, thank you for posting the video!

make them bounce from the celling, walls and floor (let's assume, they're made from rubber).

How can i do a Textbox with Pygame? (input high scores) or something along those lines?

Or Enter Password: kind of thing.

[Terabytekit]

@dragonmekill well, you have to program them yourself. There are no support classes except font.

[dragonmekill]

@Terabytekit Mehhhh, alright, thanks :-P

[compufreak88]

@dragonmekill There is are libraries for input. PGU is quite easy to integrate with pygame.

[chrisxdeboy]

which do you find better, pymunk, or pybox2d?

[Terabytekit]

i dont know anything about pybox2d

[chrisxdeboy]

dang, cause i want to find one to use, i have both installed tho, lol

[Terabytekit]

i'd say go with pybox, it looks simpler and more advanced

[chrisxdeboy]

yea, i looked up a comparison, pybox2d was faster too.

How did you do to bind it to pygame?

[Terabytekit]

pymunk does the calculations, then pygame asks for the data every frame and draws

[unabomberman]

I've started tinkering with it myself, and got a tutorial running, now I only have to understand what that means, and how to use it, but it's a start.

Also, I tried to find documentation for pimunk but no luck. There is only documentation for chipmunk in its original form.

Did you go around in the dark testing for yourself what worked and what didn't, or did you look at the documentation and figured it our from there by extrapolating what you read into how it would work under pygame?

[Terabytekit]

weell actually i used the pymunk tutorial found on googlepages

[unabomberman]

You know what? I'm an idiot, apparently. I checked a little more thoroughly and found the ACTUAL documentation for pymunk, and I guess a decent tutorial.

Yep.

Thanks for you time, man.

[Terabytekit]

humm.. could you give me a link to the doc?

[bubbletanking]

so far ive made a background with a F-16 as the mouse thats controlled by your arrow keys(with the help of thenewbostons tutorials) well..anyway ide just love to see some of the code

[bubbletanking]

is there a download for the code? ide love to see the code, i recently learned Python(at least enough to know what most f the functions do) and i got pygame, but i dunno how to make it so when you like clickyour mouse or a button you can fire a projectile-ima slplit this into 2 comments

[geganobo]

what code do you use to make it a closed box??..( i mean so that the balls dont fly away).....like a border at the edges

[Terabytekit]

i just created 5 static lines, that act like a border

[naipsak]

Nice vid :), what do you use to record it?

[Terabytekit]

I used Camtasia Camstudio. There is a freeware version.
