You are the first person i have seen create tutorials with such depth yet simplicity, from someone like me who has only scraped the surface of pygame am amazed by these intricate and useful features, you really explain it well

couldnt have said it better

In my software renderer I did pixel perfect collisions in the same way that you might do depth buffering. I made an int array the size of the window, initialized to 0, called ID buffer. Then when I render anything, of course I change the RGB of the screen pixel buffer and put the Z in the depth buffer, but I also update the ID buffer. Now when you want to know what objects are on a given pixel... just check the ID buffer. And remember to clear the buffer at the end/beginning of the loop. pixel perfect, doesn't cost too much memory, fast, and works perfectly for 3d as well.

Excellent works. Keep it up!

Great tutorial! Learnt a lot of useful stuff :D

I wanna thank u, I can't tell u how useful that was to me.

Thank you for mentioning that this doesn't work in earlier pygame versions. Saved me a lot of time.

Very cool! Can you calculate the outline outside of the mainloop and then just offset it's x and y to improve performance?

I think the chapters might be wrong? (Something about selection sort rather than masks!) Either way the video was very helpful! Also what editor are you using? Looks very slick!

hey so a small question, do you have any recommended beginner tutorials that i could use to learn pygame? I have quite a nice knowledge in coding in general (I do a bit of python but i mainly specialize in lua but i wanna learn more of python) I looked over alot of tuts but alot of them arent really detailed so maybe someone that does this on a day to day basis might have some advice

Hi, what editor do you use? (not video editor but just python editor) I've installed PyCharm but its kinda slow... I'm still using IDLE but the downside of that is that you can't really have more than 2 .py files open cuz then you wont be able to edit it very well...

Sadly Atom is being deprecated, so official development and support will stop soon. I used Intellij Idea before, and found the speed to be reasonable, so PyCharm should not be any worse. What are the specs of your computer?

Can you do a tutorial to show how to use masks for curved platforms collisions?

Depending on the type of platform, those get implemented with just math rather than using masks.

Is it possible to make destructible terrain in pygame?

Yes Thank you for coming to my ted talk

It's him! It's the potato man!

This is a great intro. My usual usage of masks is through collidemask. For example if I'm making a bullet hell shmup, the hitbox for the player ship is generally smaller than the sprite, so I first check if a bullet is inside the player sprite with spritecollide and if so, then checking the mask collide. I'm sure there are better ways of handling this, but using masks to fine tune collision only when necessary seems to give decent performance.

"phenomenal"

I dont know why, but I'm having a hard time finding an install for Pygame2, everything is Pygame1.X. Do you happen to have a link I could use to install Pygame2?

Does anybody know of a video tutorial on collision with masks? Not for pygame, but just learning how mask collision works? Like not actual code or anything but explaining the algorithms. So I can learn how to make my own collision. But then again, I guess every language has a library for collision. But I still want to learn how it works.

Why do stuff like fighting games still use hitboxes instead of having pixel perfect masks?

probably because hitboxes are way easier to code and they're way faster (I think)

@dominicballinger6536

Think about it. Fighting games need consistency and speed. Using masks would make a basic punch unreliable depending on how the other character is shaped and the distance. And calculating masks for them would be more resource intensive than necessary. Using boxes is faster and you will always hit the opponent no matter how their body curves.

it's pretty funny how unreliable pygames built-in collision detection methods are. I was having a hell of a time getting bullets to collide and ricochet appropriately until I finally just said "fuck it" and wrote my own methods.
