Re: [pygame] event.wait and userevents

I think the problem is the way you are using it. This works fine for me.

pygame.time.set_timer(pygame.USEREVENT, 1000)

while True:
    event = pygame.event.wait()
    if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
        break
    elif event.type == pygame.USEREVENT:
        print 'timer'

hello,
i made a litte app with pygame. i had troubles with the event loop using pygame.event.wait and userevents, triggered by pygame.time.set_timer(pygame.USEREVENT, 1000)
the following code didn't work. it looks like during pygame.event.wait() userevents aren't processed internally. as long as no other event got triggered, the loop blocked. 
   ...
   for event in [ pygame.event.wait() ] + pygame.event.get( ):
       # event handling code
