pygamelib.board_items.BoardItemComplexComponent

class pygamelib.board_items.BoardItemComplexComponent(**kwargs)

The default component of a complex item.

It is literrally just a BoardItem but is subclassed for easier identification.

It is however scanning its parent for the item’s basic properties (overlappable, restorable, etc.)

A component can never be pickable by itself.

__init__(**kwargs)

Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.
