Hysterelius / Pygame-Event-Manager

This manages pygame events in simplimistic interface

Sushi Dodger

This is a free wrapper for the default PyGame event wrapper, with a range of functions allowing for a more streamlined use of the event system. It minimizes overdrawing - where other parts of the code take out events that are needed to be acted upon by another system. It instead uses function-based code calling on event entering.

Usage:

All the code is in event_manager.py.

Basic Usage:

Look at the wiki for more advanced usage of event_manager.

1. Copy the code from event_manager.py into your PyGame game
2. Call name_of_var = events_sync()

• Use the listen function to provide actions to be performed on certain events e.g. For a keyboard down event with a specific key you would use: name_of_var.listen(pygame.KEYDOWN, name_of_function, pygame.K_a) or using key remapping: name_of_var.config('up', pygame.K_w) then, name_of_var.listen(pygame.KEYDOWN, name_of_function, 'up').
• Instead for a basic function you can just use: name_of_var.listen(pygame.QUIT, name_of_function, None, var_passed_into-name_of_function)

3. Call name_of_var() in the update loop of your game to run all the events through it
