How do you change the size of a surface in pygame that has an image (not scaling). When I load an image in pygame the surface becomes the size of the image. I need to change the size of the surface to be the size of a frame (sprite sheet).
Here is code I used to solve issue (thanks to Chris Dennett):
self.surface = pygame.Surface((20, 20))
self.surface.blit(pygame.image.load(imageName).convert_alpha(), (0,0), (0, 0, frameWidth, frameHeight))
Create a new surface, passing in the desired width and height as arguments (i.e., how big the sprite is). Then use
newsurf.blit(spritesheet, (0, 0), (posX, posY, newsurf.getWidth(), newsurf.getHeight())). Should work. Then you can use newsurf as your sprite.posXandposYshould be the x and y you want to blit from in your sprite sheet respectively.
