You can't use "self" in the "def" line. Here is how I usually accomplish
what you are trying to do:
class Car(Basicsprite): #car class
def __init__(self,
speedarg=(0,0)):
self.speed = speedarg
Basicsprite.__init__(self)
def move(self, speedv=None):
if speedv==None: speedv = self.speedv
self.rect = self.rect.move(speedv)
But maybe somebody else can suggest a nicer way to do that.
