I’ve noticed Gab1234 has suddenly jumped very high up in many leaderboards, so I tried to fight his character.
When I try the following link, my character starts with 0 health, so he wins by default.
No, you don’t) I’ve noticed the same voodoo magic with this character (and one more player) and after a couple of minutes and editing my code I made a conclusion… Seems like your opponent sets yours (and everyone else, exept themselves and pets (couse thay have NaN health))health parameter to zero in the very beginning.
Yeah I noticed that too.
I tried doing that, but it says that I cannot change the settings for the health, so it doesn’t work.
So I figured out his code:
# Stay alive longer than the enemy hero!
def findStorgestEnemy():
strogest = None
health = 0
enemies = hero.findEnemies()
for enemy in enemies:
if enemy.health > health:
strogest = enemy
health = enemy.health
return strogest
while True:
# Devise your own strategy. Be creative!
enemy = findStorgestEnemy()
if enemy:
enemy.defeat()
cost = hero.costOf(\"griffin-rider\")
if hero.gold > cost:
hero.summon(\"griffin-rider\")
friends = hero.findFriends()
for friend in friends:
enemy = findStorgestEnemy()
if enemy:
if hero.distanceTo(enemy) < 15:
enemy.defeat()
else:
hero.command(friend, \"move\", enemy.pos)
units have a “defeat” method that will instantly kill them, which Gab1234 is abusing.
# will kill all enemies
for enemy in hero.findEnemies():
enemy.defeat()

Here’s the code he uses in replayable levels
# Stay alive for two minutes.
# If you win, it gets harder (and more rewarding).
# If you lose, you must wait a day before you can resubmit.
# Remember, each submission gets a new random seed.
def findStrongest():
brawler = hero.findNearest(hero.findByType("brawler"))
ogre = hero.findNearest(hero.findByType("ogre"))
fangrider = hero.findNearest(hero.findByType("fangrider"))
shaman = hero.findNearest(hero.findByType("shaman"))
scout = hero.findNearest(hero.findByType("scout"))
enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()

Thanks, guys! I’ve fixed it (maybe need some time for caching refreshing). We know where from this cheat appeared but not sure how long it has been working.

According to the leaderboards of replayable levels - not very long time)
Thank you for fixing it)
only 3 days. (20 i hate it)
I think this cheat was here much longer. Maybe it was just found several days ago by cheater users (who used it silently)

As I can see you’ve used this cheat on some ladder levels too.
@Bryukh, is there a way that you can delete the code if those people who’ve used the cheat as well as their score? It’s unfair to people like me who haven’t used it.
the code doesn’t work anymore
I think Chaboi is talking about removing the scores on the leader board for the ones who used the cheat.

But it still remains in the leaderboard.
The score or the fact that it still works?
looks like codecombat hasn’t done a thorough scan of hacks. lol. (I don’t blame them tho, it would be pretty hard to fix up these)
We’ve removed them. Current @Seojin_Roy_Lee 's code is honest and placed on 1st placed honestly (it’s just good)

Ok thanks! I’ll check some sneaky cheaters today and I’ll PM who did it and what level. 
On cloudrip mountain, for the seige, there are 2 people who used the cheat
