            Collision detection depends on your needs.

            • Bounding boxes are simple and can detect if the x, y edges of each object are not within one another. This is fine for fast moving games and things where you don't necessarily require point precision.
            • Distance vectors are also simple and perfect solution for circle collisions. They calculate the difference in distance between two objects according to a radius prescribed with the hypotenuse of distX^2 + distY^2.
            • Compound bounding objects are harder to calculate, especially for concave areas on objects of arbitrary shape. There are too many notable and novel approaches to collision detection beyond these to remark on here.

            They're also increasingly complex depending on things like variability (if they're deformable objects, if they have particle seams, etc and 2d vs 3d object collision can be vastly different worlds as well. There are tons of articles, but I'll post one with implementation here

            The problem is caused by multiple calls to pygame.display.update(). An update of the display at the end of the application loop is sufficient. Multiple calls to pygame.display.update() or pygame.display.flip() cause flickering.

            Remove all calls to pygame.display.update() from your code, but call it once at the end of the application loop:

            How to have unlimited FPS and still control the FPS of your program in Pygame?
            Asked 2021-Jun-14 at 21:42

            I did some research and found this: Setting a fixed FPS in Pygame, Python 3 and this: pygame clock.tick() vs framerate in game main loop. It is similar to what I am asking.

            So the clock.tick(FPS) caps the program to run at that FPS. The reason you do this is so you can control the FPS of the program and it makes it easier for time stuff like waits.

            But how can I unlimited FPS and still control my FPS for time stuff like waits? From my understanding, this is not possible, due to the fact that clock.tick(FPS) caps the FPS and while not adding it in means unlimited FPS but you not being able to control the FPS.

            So it seems to be a question of weather to cap you FPS for control or have your program run as fast as possible, but without control.

            In conclusion, what I am asking is four questions;

            1. Pros and cons of capping your FPS
            2. Pros and cons of not capping your FPS and going on with the natural FPS of your program
            3. Is it possible to have unlimited FPS and still control my FPS for time stuff like waits?
            4. If so, how?

            Answered 2021-Jun-14 at 21:42

            You have to calculate the movement per frame depending on the frame rate.

            pygame.time.Clock.tick returns the number of milliseconds since the last call. When you call it in the application loop, this is the number of milliseconds that have passed since the last frame. When you call it without a parameter (framerate=0), the FPS are unlimited.

            Define the distance in pixels that the player should move per second (move_per_second). Then compute the distance per frame in the application loop:

            Use pygame.time.Clock to control the frames per second and thus the game speed.

            The method tick() of a pygame.time.Clock object, delays the game in that way, that every iteration of the loop consumes the same period of time. See pygame.time.Clock.tick():

            This method should be called once per frame.
