[PyGame] Mouse.get_pressed() Overlapping Buttons

[KHendrikson]

As a note, the different menu screens are in the same general function, split between parts of it, to make navigating easier.

Hard to say without seeing code, but this worries me.

I think you should look into how to design a multi scene program before continuing.

The code itself is pretty simple, since I'm new to Pygame. The screens share a similar background and thus the whole screen doesn't need to be updated each time, rather the contents of the menus, so I thought it would be easier to keep it within the same function. Do you think splitting it between functions would solve the issue?

menu = 'menu'
while True:
   mouse = pygame.mouse.get_pos()
   click = pygame.mouse.get_pressed()
   if menu == 'menu':
       # Displays main options menu
       # Looks for key presses to navigate through options (works great)
       # Looks for mouse position and presses:
       if x < mouse[0] < x+i and y < mouse[1] < y+j:
           if click[0] == 1:
               menu = 'attack'
       elif ...:
           if click[0] == 1:
               menu = 'item'
       elif ...:
           ...
   if menu == 'attack':
       # Displays the different attacks menu
       # Since the attack screen shares some button coordinates,
       # after switching menu = 'attack' it starts scanning for new input
       # relating to the new coordinates. And since the coordinates are
       # the same, and it still detects the button being pressed, it activates
       # the next button.
       # If you want to go back to the previous menu you'd just switch menu = 'menu' again
   if menu == 'item':
       # Displays the Item menu
       # ...
   pygame.display.update()
   clock.tick(30)

I've now also tried to split the menu between different functions, setting new variables for get_pos() and get_pressed() in them, but that has also failed to work.
