NEED SOME URGENT HELP: How do i fix this attribution error

this is a part of an entry for completion that's deadline is in a fed says. I had run into some errors and got some help from someone on this board. then I went I fixed the rest of it but now I am stuck on this attribution error that I don't know how to fix. This is the first time I am working with pygame, so I am pretty much a total beginner. any help again would be greatly appreciated.

hi, you made a typo:

the correct way to initialize a function is to use __init__
so do that


  def __init__(self):
    pygame.init()
    self.running, self.playing = True,False
    self.UP_KEY, self.DOWN_KEY,self.START_KEY
    self.BACK_KEY = False, False, False, False
    self.DISPLAY_W, self.DISPLAY_H = 480,270
    self.display=pygame.Surface((self.DISPLAY_W,self.DISPLAY_H))
    self.window = pygame.display.set_mode(((self.DISPLAY_W,self.DISPLAY_H)))
    self.font_name = "8-BIT WONDER.TTF"
    self.BLUE,self.WHITE = (52,64,235),(255,255,255)
    self.main_menu = MainMenu(self)
    self.options = OptionsMenu(self)
    self.options = CreditsMenu(self)
    self.curr_menu = self.main_menu

@Coder100 thanks a lot! but did you spot any other typos by chance because no I have an attribution error of, Game object has no attribute UP_KEY

Coder100

@ArtemisNightingale don't forget to indent all of this:

so it has all the same indentation as the class.

ArtemisNightingale

@Coder100 got it! but do you know how to fix the syntax error that's popping up for line 2? i don't see whats wrong

Coder100

do you mean import menu or from menu import * because when you import using from import you have to specify what you want to import. @ArtemisNightingale

ArtemisNightingale

@Coder100 understood. I corrected it to "from menu import*". I think it almost worked but now they're saying there is a type error.

In the Game class the function _init_ should be __init__.

ArtemisNightingale

@JustCoding123 I did that but now it says the Game object has no attribute up key, is it another typo I need to fix?

JustCoding123

@ArtemisNightingale Fixed it


def __init__(self):
    pygame.init()
    self.running, self.playing = True,False
    self.UP_KEY, self.DOWN_KEY, self.START_KEY, self.BACK_KEY = False, False, False, False
    self.DISPLAY_W, self.DISPLAY_H = 480,270
    self.display=pygame.Surface((self.DISPLAY_W,self.DISPLAY_H))
    self.window = pygame.display.set_mode(((self.DISPLAY_W,self.DISPLAY_H)))
    self.font_name = "8-BIT WONDER.TTF"
    self.BLUE,self.WHITE = (52,64,235),(255,255,255)
    self.main_menu = MainMenu(self)
    self.options = OptionsMenu(self)
    self.options = CreditsMenu(self)
    self.curr_menu = self.main_menu

ArtemisNightingale

@JustCoding123 thanks so much for the help! after I put in the changes you said and fixed the indention errors, I am now having a syntax error of line 2. I don't see the problem in it though?

JustCoding123

@ArtemisNightingale In the MainMenu class you again wrote _init_ and not __init__

ArtemisNightingale

I honestly don't know how to fix this problem.
