need to write apidocs

The method of articulating speed is glitchy. To reproduce, if you move diagonally you'll see the unsynchronization of the various "steppers" create a disharmony which effects jittery movement (you see it move left, then up, looks very glitchy).

make it so you can specify a whole layer image in a tilemap and tilesheet, by convention layer0.png

since each layer is surface, can manipulate surfaces, like scroll, spin, animations, etc. layers can use layer effects. pygame rotation is a thing

mostly notes for myself here :p

I mean, we have the huge advantage of dealing with each layer as a single image, as per TileMap, so this should make doing layer effects super easy. ❤️

I could really use your input on the wiki and website. I'd appreciate it if you could proof read them and provide suggestions to enhance them.

The GitHub description points to http://lillian-lemmer.github.io/hypatia-engine/ instead of http://lillian-lemmer.github.io/hypatia/

For some reason I've been using only two? I think the spec got updated. Looks a lot nicer and makes a lot more sense.

easy plugin system for game engine. also need various features making serializing data very simple and efficient.

Create usable_once property for NPCs in NPC.ini and tmx whereas an NPC is destroyed after it is "used." A problem I see is what constitutes "used?"

Please create your own tilesheets, walkabouts, and scenes. Post them here. Bonus points for doing your own recording/uploading to YouTube, etc.

I want you to fiddle with the engine and show it off in video format. Link to the video in this thread. Please upload to the official Hypatia YouTube channel. Also see #56

It would also be more than acceptable to simply provide tilesheets walkabouts, and scenes as downloads. These can be provided on my patreon and eventually other places-like the wiki or the website.

I'm not sure. They'd have to all begin with changing to the parent directory, then...

Hi,
I'm just wondering why you're not making this project also Python 3 compatible. I know that you've just started, so it would be much more easier now to think about that, than two years from now, when this package will be very successful and there will be many more complains "why this isn't working in Py3!?". ;-)
Regards,
Wiktor

(I managed to make it work under Py3 and Py2, but I don't know if all hacks are Pythonic enough, so I would rather not commit anything now (even if you are OK with Py3 compatibility). I'm novice, learning Pygame myself, and for now I want to just understand how this engine works, and not to break anything) :-)

if you put "raise exception" inside the child wlakabout draw loop, nothing happens. the hat is not being drawn.

https://github.com/lillian-lemmer/hypatia/wiki/Installation-Instructions#windows

Step 2 should be installing pygame.

Line 13 contains a typo. I'm still to new to pip so maybe I'm just doing something wrong, but it seems to me it should be changed from:

pip install --user -r requirements.txt .

to:

pip install --user -r requirements/python2.txt

I tried to run install-ubuntu-py27.sh from a fresh git clone this afternoon (July 5) and ran into an error when attempting to run the script. Changing the line to the above seemed to fix it for me.

I use Travis CI (continuous integration) and Coveralls.io. Travis CI helps test our software automatically, and Coveralls receives the percentage/details of what's being tested.

Here's the Coveralls.io: https://coveralls.io/r/lillian-lemmer/hypatia

The Travis CI: https://travis-ci.org/lillian-lemmer/hypatia

Note that testers should use pip install requirements/testing.txt. I'd also appreciate it if someone better documented my testing process, I think I have some notes some where, but if you could add it to the wiki, that'd be great. :)

The coverage is currently pretty low (60%) and I'd like it to be closer to 100%, of course. Checkout the tests directory as well as test.sh.

both wiki and code docstrings must be updated to reflect recent changes

See: https://github.com/lillian-lemmer/hypatia/blob/master/.travis.yml

The mentioned configuration does not seem to supply coveralls.io with actual coverage details, although, coveralls.io does seem to get updated.

Transparency issues, also some issue with the bottom-box not being drawn in the test.py render test...

The demo needs to connect to localhost, and be capable of connecting to other servers on the network. This will greatly simplify future multiplayer development as well as code separation with render vs. data.

I have some reading to do: http://www.nightmare.com/medusa/async_sockets.html

I might use this library: https://github.com/chr15m/PodSixNet

Also: json pickle

It says here, to use a tests folder. And also, you can use a class for each and every test for better debugging, as mentioned here

Excluding docstring stuff. I want all of the wiki and readmes etc to be converted to markdown

I think pygame's presense makes PIL redundant.

I'd like it if on gh-pages index.adoc we had links to post to facebook, reddit, twitter, etc. You'll need to use static links, as seen here: http://crunchify.com/list-of-all-social-sharing-urls-for-handy-reference-social-media-sharing-buttons-without-javascript/

Again, I'm just talking about adding social links to the main page of the hypatia website, i.e., http://lillian-lemmer.github.io/hypatia

I'd also be nice if you had other ideas/tips for increasing our presence. Also, please see if you can generate chatter about Hypatia.

Have you tried hypatia on a Raspberry Pi?, I was planning to give it ago over the weekend

the website sucks. please goodify it.

Such as, when specifying a direction, test issubclass of direction. not sure if this is already how it's done, just had a thought that may not be the case. i'll check.

The Windows standalone zip belongs in the gh-pages branch and should use the proper naming convention, e.g., windows-0.2.5.zip.

The supplied walkabout sprites are animated, and they should also be animated in the render; the walkabout sprites are clearly not an animated in-game.

Position data and Velecity need to be implemented.

example/exploremap.py: the hat is clipping off because it exceeds its parent surface.

Solution:

1. use the original image rectangle as the collision rectangle; store separately
2. resize the surface to accomodate a hat that may exceed bounds

impass_all simply adds a rectangle to check for collisions against. But why not also add the feature to add a mask to check for collisions against, too? This would be very easy to integrate, in the init of tilemap where it's setting up the impassable rectangles (looking for impass_all in tile.flags).

tile flag for making only parts of a tile impassable as defined by a mask: impass_mask

I'll take care of this. Just needed a note. :)

A compiled 64-bit Windows package for pygame can be found at:

http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pygame

Click the pygame‑1.9.2a0‑cp27‑none‑win_amd64.whl link to download the wheel file and then:

pip install pygame‑1.9.2a0‑cp27‑none‑win_amd64.whl

If a user follows the installation instructions for Ubuntu to the letter, upon running ./test.sh they will encounter a pip error stating that "--no-cache-dir" option doesn't exist. This is due to the fact that the install instructions have the user install pip from Ubuntu's repository. Ubuntu's repository uses pip version 1.5.6. The --no-cache-dir option was implemented starting in version 6.0 (see pip reference guide).

Either test.sh needs to be edited to no longer use the --no-cache-dir option or the Installation-Ubuntu instructions and scripts need to be amended to use the get-pip.py installation method, which will install the latest version of pip (7.1.0).

Use py2exe or other library to make a single standalone exe of the +examples/game.py+ demo

tile flag for making only parts of a tile impassable as defined by a mask

Due to keyerror for "only" walkabouts (walkabout with one sprite.) obvious solution is to make the walkabout and decalsprite share the same api (to an extent!).

[07:44:07] One thing you could do then in constants.py is define Direction and Action to inherit from Enum, which would then cause an AttributeError if any code accidentally tried to do something like redefine "Direction.Up"
[07:44:33] I asked about the version since Enum is from Python 3.4, but there is a package ("enum34" I think?) that back-ports it for Python 2.7.
[07:46:00] Yeap
[07:46:01] I use it
[07:46:24] Yet another thing from Python's standard library that would be nice to have in Lua, heh.
[07:46:45] Instead of having to implement it by screwing around with __newindex() metamethods.
[07:47:21] Honestly I think Python has one of the best standard libraries of any mainstream language.
[07:51:22] Trying to think of the last time I've actually used Python now lol. Might have been over a year already.
[07:51:45] oh that sounds nice
[07:52:51] Yeah you could do something like "class Direction(Enum): Up = 1 Down = 2" etc. Same for Action.

Cycle colors is inefficient. Takes forever on large images with more color. Either use PixelArray intelligently or learn how to get 8bit sprites working for get and set_palette (you have to convert back when done). Is it just that there needs to be more color data (4th value)? Figure it out.

Setup.py does not specify version. That's not good.
