Hey there, i'm relatively new to pyGame and considering this is like my second attempt at doing it by myself after watching a few tutorials, i'd say im getting the hang of it.
However, as i was creating a game i realised i had no clue how to make the objects bounce off eachother and repel. Here is my code so far, i know it doesn't work and i know it seems quite stupid at the end, however i was just trying all sorts of things.
My way of interpreting this problem is that if there is an intersection that is equal on both shapes, It should repel, but as i've tried doing this i can only manage to get one intersection. I tried range function as you can see but that does not work, which i kinda knew wouldn't.

Any help would be greatly apreciated :) Cheers
