title: Python Text Based Game Display
body: <p>I am trying to write a text based game in Python, but have reached a problem. I have my character move from one position to another in the Console, but every time the user presses a key, the character disappears. In order to see the character again, the user must press a key. Here is my code: </p>
  
  <pre><code>import os
  import msvcrt
  
  class Frog:
      X = 0
      Y = 0
  
      def __init__(self, x, y):
              self.X = x
              self.Y = y
  
      def Draw(self):
              for y in range(self.Y):
                      print ""
              print ' ' * self.X + '#'
  
  
  
      def Update(self):
              if msvcrt.kbhit() == True:
                      if msvcrt.getch() == 'a':
                              if self.X &gt; 0:
                                      self.X = self.X - 1
                      if msvcrt.getch() == 'd':
                                      self.X = self.X + 1
                      if msvcrt.getch() == 'w':
                                      self.Y = self.Y - 1
                      if msvcrt.getch() == 's':
                                      self.Y = self.Y + 1
  
  
  
  
  
  
  frog = Frog(0,0)
  
  
  def Draw():
      frog.Draw()
      os.system('cls')
  
   def Loop():
  
      while 1:      
  
                      frog.Update()
                      Draw()
  
  
  
  Loop()

  <p>Does anyone know what is causing this? All help would be greatly appreciated.</p>
