I think the contents of most of the project should be all right though. I'll try to look for the original zip file. Hi Bilbo,

Question:

using the layout code from above I designed a side scroller.(I modded the lewy to fit a side scroller)
I have my player,
and the layout,
all I need for it all to come together is a gravity function.

how would I write this?

it needs to check for an empty square below the player and if so fall at speed but if there is some thing below the player(like the blocks) stop him.

I would consider going into more depth on how to use Eclipse, except for the fact that I no longer use Eclipse! I liked Eclipse well enough, it's just that I found it to be slow after a while. I've been doing most of my current programming on Linux and have started using Geany as my IDE. Thanks for the idea though I may look into it. Hi Warbucks,

The reason i like your tutorial, is because its written at ground level, and straight to the point, without all of the mindless jargon, to show off. I was wondering if you ever considered going into more detail on using eclipse, because with that information, this tutorial would be a complete walk thru for us eclipse beginners.

It's something that I've wanted to do, but lately I just have not found the time. I like using separate files more and more now to keep my modules organized. You share values between files in the same way that you do between classes and modules, just pass them in. Hi McSweenus,

And have you ever made a program where the background scrolls under the character in the center? I'm still getting used to a lot of pygame functions and I've been trying to pull bits and pieces of ideas from your 'pyman' tutorials. My head hurts after a while, especially when I think my code should do something but it doesn't. Do find that it works well for you to use separate files? I'm just not sure how values get shared between files because I'm not seeing a lot of return functions. I probably asked three questions in there. Hope this wasn't too vague Thanks in advance Have you ever used ’surfarray’? And have you ever made a program where the background scrolls under the character in the center?
