playerTop.draw(screen)
playerBot.draw(screen)
topPoints.draw(screen)
botPoints.draw(screen)
Try changing to:
playerTop.draw(top_screen)
playerBot.draw(bot_screen)
topPoints.draw(top_screen)
botPoints.draw(bot_screen)
etc.
Also, your check_bounds for the Square class doesn't make sense. The
purpose of using subsurfaces is that you don't have to worry about
"where" the sprite.rect is relative to the parent surface, only the
child surface. I changed that to this:
def checkBounds(self):
if self.rect.centerx > self.screen.get_width():
self.rect.centerx = 0
if self.rect.centerx < 0:
self.rect.centerx = self.screen.get_width()
if self.rect.centery > self.screen.get_height():
self.rect.centery = 0
if self.rect.centery < 0:
self.rect.centery = self.screen.get_height()
I'd be a little wary of blending your sprite-drawing code and your
physics code like this, though.
Hope this helps!
