Python Pygame code help - Trajme - Dec-06-2017

Here is my current code, i am trying to make a pause event so when the user presses P the game will pause and when the user presses C the game will continue, can someone please show me how they would add onto this code?


import turtle

wn.bgcolor("black")
wn.title("Space invaders")
wn.bgpic("space_invaders_backgrounds.gif")

turtle.register_shape("ship.gif")
turtle.register_shape("Enemy.gif")

border_pen.speed(0)

border_pen.penup()
border_pen.setposition(-300,-300)

border_pen.pensize(3)

    border_pen.fd(600)
    border_pen.lt(90)
border_pen.hideturtle()

score_pen.setposition(-290, 280)

score_pen.write(scorestring, False, align="left", font=("Arial", 14, "normal"))
score_pen.hideturtle()

#Main game loop
while True:

Before your while loop, you'd need to set event handlers that are bound to those keys, using Turtle.onkeypress: https://docs.python.org/3.6/library/turtle.html#turtle.onkeypress
And then you'd also want to have some sort of state machine to determine what you should be doing.  Something like:
class State:
    Running = 0
    Paused = 1

current_state = State.Running

def on_pause():
    global current_state
    current_state = State.Paused

def on_continue():
    global current_state
    current_state = State.Running

turtle.onkeypress(on_pause, "k")
turtle.onkeypress(on_continue, "c")

while True:
    if current_state == State.Running:
        # your current while loop goes here, so it only does anything if the game is running
