[PyGame] Chopper wash effect efficiency questions.

[michael1789]

Using set on a class objects won't work. All class object have separate id.

My bad. My self.sparks list is just a list of points. I get them to the screen

I can get pygame to move about 1000 sprites without any frame rate loss.

I'm looking to simulate 10000 things within an otherwise complicated, atmospheric game. What about prerendering sparks to transparent tiles?... I just had a light go on. The new plan is to prerender a spark effect onto transparent tiles then animate the tiles based on chopper location. I can layer them too.

This could have many game applications. An animated tile set seems like a worthy challenge. Now I have to make a flamethrower game! lol
