Running pygame in python on macos sonoma, Secure coding error

Hi. I have a problem with running pygame projects in python by VS Code. I have macbook air m2 with mac os sonoma 14.2.1(latest version). When i run the script below even with 10 seconds delay to get what happens, it just gets this error:

"WARNING: Secure coding is not enabled for restorable state! Enable secure coding by implementing NSApplicationDelegate.applicationSupportsSecureRestorableState: and returning YES."

I don't know what's wrong, but I know that i have installed pygame well, python well, and there's no problem with the app and code.

WHAT SHOULD I DO?

MacBook Air, macOS 14.2

Your pygame may be attempting to use older Tk/Tcl library references that have changed in Python3. As this is just a warning that you cannot immediately fix, I would just redirect your stderr to /dev/null and avoid that warning…

In code:

# stderr to /dev/null
f = open("/dev/null", "w")
os.dup2(f.fileno(), 2)
f.close()

or on the command-line:

/usr/local/bin/python3 "/Users/soroush/Personal/P.P(Pajoheshi Project)/test.py" 2> /dev/null

If you run this Python3 code, it will just output the versions of your Tk/Tcl libraries and without any warning either:

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import sys

try:
    import Tkinter as tk      # Python 2
except ImportError:
    import tkinter as tk      # Python 3

print("Tcl Version: {}".format(tk.Tcl().eval('info patchlevel')))
print("Tk Version: {}".format(tk.Tk().eval('info patchlevel')))
sys.exit()
