Unable to change image of sprite

[jrmhaig]

When I try to use the image setter on an Actor I get the error TypeError: 'str' object is not callable. Here is a basic example that shows this;

import pgzrun

ship = Actor('ship0')
ship.image('ship1')

pgzrun.go()

Am I using this incorrectly? I'm afraid I am not primarily a Python programmer so it is possible I have misunderstood.

You need to use ship.image = 'ship1' ship.image is a property, not a function

Thanks @mrjonesmc

This is very helpful and demonstrates my lack of knowledge of Python decorators.

This is not an issue, just my misunderstanding.
