SUMMARY:7 PM - Python Game Development
DESCRIPTION:Today: \n\nWe went over the homework to add the tank explosion sprite.\nWe delayed the shield power-up creation\, and created it on random empty squares.\n\nHomework: \n\nClone Tower of Defense and checkout the “skeleton” branch.  Then create a new branch using your name from this branch.  Then setup the project so that you can load the game background.

SUMMARY:1 PM - Python Game Development
DESCRIPTION:Today: \n\nWe went over the homework to add the shield on top of the tank.\nWe corrected the rotation of the turret.\n\nHomework: \n\nAdd a new attribute “self.degrees_rotated” to the shield\, and every update method/frame increase the degrees rotated by one.\nRotate the original image by the “self.degrees_rotated” value\, and draw this image on the screen.\nCenter the rotated shield on the center of the tank by positioning it with respect to the center of the shields target location using the same method we used to rotated the turret correctly.

SUMMARY:4:30 PM - Python OOP - Gamas
DESCRIPTION:Homework\n\nModify Feb8_ShoppingCartV2.py so we are using “items” dictionary wherever we use Milk\, Eggs\, Orange Juice and Bread.\nCreate one more dictionary “prices” \, the key will be either “1”\,”2″\,”3″ or “4”. The values will be the prices of each item. So for instance\, “1”: 5 because “1” is the price of Milk which is $5.\nReplace all the prices inside the while to use the “prices” dictionary.

SUMMARY:1 PM - Python Game Development
DESCRIPTION:Today: \n\nWe went over the homework to rotate the shield.\nWe added animation to the exploding brick.\nWe oriented the bullet so it’s facing the correct direction using the angle passed by the turret.\n\nHomework: \n\nModify the Brick sprite constructor to add an additional parameter type that has value either WALL_FLAG or BORDER_WALL_FLAG.  When WALL_FLAG is passed in the constructor\, use the current logic to load the red brick image\, but when BORDER_WALL_FLAG is passed load a  different image\, “IronWall.png”.  You can find this image here: Or at gitlab here.\nModify the create_map method so that when the cell_type is a BORDER_WALL_FLAG\, then create a Brick is passed with the type parameter BORDER_WALL_FLAG\, but when it’s wall type  is WALL_FLAG\, then the Brick is created with the type parameter WALL_FLAG.  Add the bricks created with the border wall flag to a separate sprite group so that they can’t be destroyed by the bullets.\nModify the MAP variable in config.py so that the top side\, bottom side\, and left and right sides of the map have the BORDER_WALL_FLAG value. Make sure that these get created on the screen using the create_map method:\nBonus: move the bullet in the correct direction based on the direction parameter that gets passed in from the turret.  Also center the bullet so that when it’s created\, the center of the bullet is equal to the center of the turret.

SUMMARY:7 PM - Python Game Development
DESCRIPTION:Today: \n\nWe went over the homework to add the target.\nWe added directions and kept track of the current region and expected directions\, so the enemy could walk down the path.\n\nHomework: \n\nFinish the logic so the enemy walks down the path through region “5a” or “5b”.\nAdd animation to to the enemy.  First load up an attribute called “self.images” which contains all the animation frames from “2_enemies_1_WALK_000.png” to “2_enemies_1_WALK_009.png”.  Then add animation by add a get_next_image method which returns the next image after a 5 frame delay.

DESCRIPTION:Today: \n\nWe went over how to add the iron walls.\nWe reviewed how we pointed the bullet in the correct direction.\nWe moved the bullet in the direction the turret is facing.\n\nHomework: \n\nSpawn the bullet so that first appears in the center of the tank.\nAdd logic so the enemy tank can’t move through both normal and iron bricks.  You can use the same technique we used for the player tank.

SUMMARY:7 PM - Python Game Development
DESCRIPTION:Today: \n\nWent over the homework to add animation and finish the enemy map navigation.\nWe added the tower.\nWe added the health indicator.\n\nHomework: \n\nCreate a new sprite class called Bullet.  Use the the image “assets/images/red_projectile2.png”. for the bullet’s self.image attribute.\nAdd a method to create bullet inside main.py called launch_bullet\, that every 120 frames launches a new bullet.  Make it so that your tower will create one bullet moving to the right about every 3 seconds.\nBonus: first add a direction parameter to your Bullet class to face and move it the correct direction provided which is measured in degrees.  Then inside the tower\, create 4 bullet every 3 seconds\, but make it so the bullets face different directions and move different directions\, as in the example below. A bullet should be created with each of these directions: 45\, 135\, 225\, and 315.

SUMMARY:1 PM - Python Game Development
DESCRIPTION:Today: \n\nWe went over the homework to center the bullet’s initial creation position\, and added collision detection between the enemy tank and the bricks.\nWe added logic so the enemy tank faces the enemy turret in the direction of the player tank.\n\nHomework: \n\nAdd some game modes: GAME_LANDING_PAGE and GAME_IN_SESSION.  Define a new attribute self.mode inside tank game originally set to GAME_LANDING_PAGE. Define a new method called handle_landing_page\, that shows the landing page like below:\n\nWhen you click the Play button switch the mode to GAME_IN_SESSION and show all the logic that we added previously with the two tanks etc.  You can follow previous examples we for handling the landing page in Birdie etc.\nBonus: Add collision detection between the player tank and the enemy tank and switch to GAME_LANDING_PAGE when the enemy tank gets destroyed.
