pygame timmer code example
Example 1: timer pythongame
import pygame
pygame.init()
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((128, 128))
clock = pygame.time.Clock()
counter, text = 10, '10'.rjust(3)
pygame.time.set_timer(pygame.USEREVENT, 1000)
font = pygame.font.SysFont('Consolas', 30)
while True:
for e in pygame.event.get():
if e.type == pygame.USEREVENT:
counter -= 1
text = str(counter).rjust(3) if counter > 0 else 'boom!'
if e.type == pygame.QUIT: break
else:
screen.fill((255, 255, 255))
screen.blit(font.render(text, True, (0, 0, 0)), (32, 48))
pygame.display.flip()
clock.tick(60)
continue
break
Example 2: how to make a countdown in pygame
start_ticks=pygame.time.get_ticks()
while mainloop:
seconds=(pygame.time.get_ticks()-start_ticks)/1000
if seconds>10:
break
print (seconds)
