I need to Make a class that draws the character at the center of the screen and match the background color of the image to the background color of the screen, or vice versa. I have already set a value for the background color of Pygame screen to blue, but when I do the same in my DrawCharacter class, it just opens the screen with the background color of the image (white). I might just be placing the bg_color attribute at the wrong place in my class.

game_character.py

import sys
import pygameclass DrawCharacter():bg_color = ((0, 0, 255))def __init__(self, screen):"""Initialize the superman and set starting position"""self.screen = screen# Load image and get rectself.image = pygame.image.load("Images/supermen.bmp")self.rect = self.image.get_rect()self.screen_rect = screen.get_rect()# Start each new supermen at the center of the screenself.rect.centerx = self.screen_rect.centerxself.rect.centery = self.screen_rect.centerydef blitme(self):"""Draw the superman at its current location"""self.screen.blit(self.image, self.rect)

blue_sky.py

import  sys
import pygame
from game_character import DrawCharacterdef run_game():# Initialize game and make screen objectpygame.init()screen = pygame.display.set_mode((1200, 800))pygame.display.set_caption("Blue Sky")bg_color = (0, 0, 255)# Make supermansuperman = DrawCharacter(screen)# Start the main loop for the gamewhile True:# Check for keyboard and mouse eventsfor event in pygame.event.get():if event.type == pygame.QUIT:sys.exit()# Redraw screen during each loop passscreen.fill(bg_color)superman.blitme()# make the most recently drawn screen visiblepygame.display.flip()run_game()

I expected the background color of the image to be the same as the background color of the Pygame screen, but it is not. The first block of code is for my class file, while the second is for the pygame file

if the image has a transparent background try doing the following in game_Character.py:

# Load image and get rectself.image = pygame.image.load("Images/supermen.bmp").convert_alpha()self.rect = self.image.get_rect()self.screen_rect = screen.get_rect()

If it has a white background you probably want to set the colorkey like so:

    # Load image and get rectself.image = pygame.image.load("Images/supermen.bmp").convert()self.image.set_colorkey((255, 255, 255))self.rect = self.image.get_rect()self.screen_rect = screen.get_rect()
