Re: [pygame] Frantic (again)

Hi again


Another bug in the credits/help screen! (see attachement).

And also a picture of my taskmanager. There you can see the line droping 
a lot (mem usage). I installed you new version today and rebooted befor 
I began to play (to make sure that nothing else is in memory). I admit I 
played it at the insane difficulty.

Isnt there a Pause key? (I wanted checking that in the help but then I 
got the bug!). I was at level 7 (in insane difficulty) and then I was 
interrupted and had to quit the game because I did not found a Pause key!!


Well another thing: wenn many ships explode simultaneous the game slows 
somewhat down. The graphics still animate very smoth, but the command 
from the keyboard are transmitted very slow to the ship and I got 
destroyed because the ship turned to slow! Also the shots were to slow! 
I think its because (I assume you use time based movement) the AI ships 
move time based, they make a bigger distance when the cpu is working 
hard, but the players ship can not. Perhpas it would be more fair to 
slow down all movement in such a moment (dont know if that would be good 
but).


Also I entcountered a anoying bug. At the end of level 3 (?) and 6 (?) 
there appear the big ship(s) that shoot. When I shot at the same time as 
the enemy and both got killed (me and the enemy), I respawned after that 
but the level did not finish! (so I had to start over all levels again!).


I hope I helped you in some way.
