Hey Everyone,
I'm making a game of snake (will post code later), and would like to slow down the drawing process. I've looked up scene.delay (which I don't know how to use properly) and also time.sleep. what is the best method and how do I implement it? Thanks!
The delay function doesn't actually slow down the drawing process. It calls a given function after a certain amount of time. It kind of tells a function to wait for n seconds before it is called.
Here's an example of the delay function:
from scene import *
class MyScene(Scene):
def setup(self):
self.color = (1,0,0)
def change_color(self):
self.color = (0,1,0)
def draw(self):
background(*self.color)
self.delay(3, self.change_color)
run(MyScene())
This draws a red screen, and the delay function will change the color to green after 3 dt have passed.
Another option to slow things down would be to pass the optional frame_interval parameter to the run function, like so:
run(MyScene(), frame_interval=3)This would basically run the scene at 30 frames per second instead of 60 (passing 3 would be 20fps etc.).
