movingRect

​

Overview

​

Constructor

movingRect(surface, pos=vec2d(0,0), size=vec2d(20,20), color=(255,0,0), 
           speed=vec2d(1,0), gravity=0)

​

Parameters

​

Methods

​

draw()

def draw(self)

1. Checks if rectangle hits horizontal boundaries (left/right edges)
   • Reverses X velocity if collision detected
2. Checks if rectangle hits vertical boundaries (top/bottom edges)
   • Reverses Y velocity if collision detected
3. Updates position by adding speed vector
4. Updates the rect object
5. Draws the rectangle to the surface

​

Attributes

• pos - Current position as vec2d
• size - Dimensions as vec2d
• speed - Velocity vector as vec2d
• color - RGB color tuple
• rect - The pygame.Rect used for drawing
• surfaceSize - Size of the surface for boundary detection

​

Usage Example

floater = movingRect(screen,
    pos=vec2d(SCREEN_WIDTH/2, 0),
    speed=vec2d(0, 5))

# Add to world objects list
world = [button, togglebtn, clockImg, hand, textTest, moveImg, floater, ball]

# In game loop
for obj in world:
    obj.draw()  # Automatically moves and bounces

​

Notes

• The rectangle automatically bounces when it hits any screen edge
• Velocity reversal creates a “bounce” effect
• The gravity parameter is defined but not currently implemented in the movement logic
• Default size is 20x20 pixels
• Default color is red (255, 0, 0)
• Position and velocity are updated every frame when draw() is called
• Uses vec2d for 2D vector operations
