psp2d movement errors

[bronywhocodes]

hello.

while using the psp2d module to code i have ran into a pickle when it comes to making a sprite move.

when i use this:

Code: Select all

import psp2d

screen = psp2d.Screen()
CLEAR_COLOUR = psp2d.Color(0,0,0)
pad = psp2d.Controller()



character = psp2d.Image("char1.png")


stillgame = True

while stillgame == True:   
   
   x = 50
   y = 50
   
   yChange = 0
   xChange = 0
   
   if pad.left:
      xChange = -10
      
   if pad.right:
      xChange = 10 
      
   x += xChange
   
   screen.clear(CLEAR_COLOUR)
   screen.blit(character,dx = x,dy = y)
   
   screen.swap()

nothing happens. (i am new to this so, i dont know what the D does )

and when i do this:

Code: Select all

import psp2d

screen = psp2d.Screen()
CLEAR_COLOUR = psp2d.Color(0,0,0)
pad = psp2d.Controller()



character = psp2d.Image("char1.png")


stillgame = True

while stillgame == True:   
   
   x = 50
   y = 50
   
   yChange = 0
   xChange = 0
   
   if pad.left:
      xChange = -10
      
   if pad.right:
      xChange = 10 
      
   x += xChange
   
   screen.clear(CLEAR_COLOUR)
   screen.blit(character,x,y)
   
   screen.swap()

i get an error:
ValueError: subsurface rectangle outside surface area


what may i be doing wrong?

wait a tick! i think the blit would of had to been in a tuple.

though i have deleted psp2d, i may come back to this later!
