Pyaudiogame Menus

[tbreitenfeldt]

Hi, my name is TJ and I have been trying to learn how to use your pyaudiogame library. I have been trying to create menus using your library, but some strange things are happening.

When I create a menu say as a main menu for right when the game loads I am getting a loop of Jaws repeating the first option of the menu over and over. When I change to the next option by using the down arrow the program will read the current option then go back to repeating the first option.
I then tried running a condition so that if "m" open the menu. All this does is read the first menu option.

Here is my code that I am using:

import pyaudiogame
from pyaudiogame.ui.menus import Menu

def spk(accessibleOutput):
spk = pyaudiogame.speech.speak(accessibleOutput)

class MyApp(pyaudiogame.App):
def set_defaults(self):
self.exit_key = 2

def logic(self, actions):
    """this is using the conditional, but I also would like to know why Jaws is stuck in a loop when menu loads first"""
    key = actions["key"]
    if key == "m":
        m = Menu(options=["option1", "option2"], title="Main Menu")
        m.run(actions)
    if key == "space":
        spk("this is a test")

MyApp("hello World").run()

I was also wondering, it isn't clear how to connect a option in the menu to an action. I am guessing that I could say:
if except == True:
but I am not sure if that is correct.

Hope you can help.

Thanks,

Hello TJ,
I am no longer actively developing this library because something like
pyglet or panda3d is much better than I could do.
But to answer your question:
I'm not sure what is going on there, I don't remember how to do menus in
pyaudiogame.
It is something that you need to be running every iteration of the loop
I think. So do something like:
menu_running = False

def logic(actions):
global menu_running
key = actions['key']
if key == "m" and not menu_running:
menu_running = Menu([option1, option2, option3])
elif menu_running:
r = menu_running.run(actions)
if r:
spk(r)
