I'm new to this forum and to python in general, so be easy on me please. :icon_smile:
I'm making a class to handle all events including mouse events. (I'm using pygame by the way)
Heres how it looks so far:
class Event:
#controlls all actions relating to events including
#mouse events
def __init__(self):
#mouse vars
self.mouse_p = [0,0,0] #previous pressing state of buttons
self.mouse_a = [0,0,0] #whether the buttons are pressed
self.mouse_t = [0,0,0] #time the buttons are pressed
self.mouse_c = [0,0,0] #whether buttons are clicked (in that step)
self.mouse_r = [0,0,0] #whether buttons are released
def step(self):
pygame.event.get()
self.mouse_a = list(pygame.mouse.get_pressed())
print self.mouse_a
for i in range(3):
if (self.mouse_p[i] == 0)and(self.mouse_a[i] == 1):#mouse active
self.mouse_c[i]=1
else:
self.mouse_c[i]=0
if (self.mouse_p[i] == 1)and(self.mouse_a[i] == 0):#mouse released
self.mouse_c = 1
else:
self.mouse_c = 0
if(self.mouse_a[i]==1): #mouse time
self.mouse_t[i] +=1
else:
self.mouse_t[i]=0
self.mouse_p = self.mouse_aThe problem is, when I test it, "self.mouse_c=0, TypeError: 'int' object does not support item assignment" comes up. I really don't know why this is. I assume that the lists are immutable inside the "step" method, but why would this be: why wouldn't it have full access to its own variables?
The only way I can think of solving this this to replace each list in one go rather than trying to set the values of each index of the list... but surely there is some other way.
If you could help, it would be greatly appreciated!
