Clash of clones/ Stuck/

[Some_Guy]

I have been stuck on this level for weeks and i still can’t pass and i’ve done everything i can to grind up for it but im still to weak

enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
enemyDis = hero.distanceTo(enemy)
BuildY = hero.pos.y
item = hero.findNearestItem()


while True:
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
    if enemy.type != "sand-yak":
        
        if enemy and hero.distanceTo(enemy) == 20:
            hero.moveXY(48, 80)
        elif enemy and hero.distanceTo(enemy) <= 15:
            if hero.isReady("jump"):
                hero.jumpTo(enemy)
            elif hero.isReady("punch"):
                hero.punch(enemy)
            elif hero.isReady("bash"):
                hero.bash(enemy)
            else:
                hero.attack(enemy)
        elif item:
            hero.moveXY(item.pos.x, item.pos.y)
        elif enemy and hero.distanceTo(enemy) <= 10:
            hero.say("Attack!")
            if hero.isReady("jump"):
                hero.jumpTo(enemy)
            elif hero.isReady("punch"):
                hero.punch(enemy)
            elif hero.isReady("sheild"):
                hero.shield
            elif hero.isReady("bash"):
                hero.bash(enemy)
            else:
                hero.attack(enemy)
        elif hero.health <= enemy.health:
            hero.moveXY(36, 62)
            hero.shield()
        else:
            hero.moveXY(36, 62)

@Some_Guy

elif hero.isReady("sheild"):
                hero.shield

This is the problem. Shielding has no cooldown so it will be stuck there forever. You might also make the bash thing a if instead of elif

[Eric_Tang]

@Some_Guy

hero.shield

Correct me if im wrong but I think you need parenthesis.

[milton.jinich]

That is also another thing.

[Some_Guy]

Yes thank you but i am still to weak

[Some_Guy]

I did and it didn’t change anything

[milton.jinich]

Can you show your new updated code.

[Some_Guy]

enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
enemyDis = hero.distanceTo(enemy)
BuildY = hero.pos.y
item = hero.findNearestItem()


while True:
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
    if enemy.type != "sand-yak":
        
        if enemy and hero.distanceTo(enemy) == 20:
            hero.moveXY(48, 80)
        elif enemy and hero.distanceTo(enemy) <= 15:
            if hero.isReady("jump"):
                hero.jumpTo(enemy)
            elif hero.isReady("punch"):
                hero.punch(enemy)
            if hero.isReady("bash"):
                hero.bash(enemy)
            else:
                hero.attack(enemy)
        elif item:
            hero.moveXY(item.pos.x, item.pos.y)
        elif enemy and hero.distanceTo(enemy) <= 10:
            hero.say("Attack!")
            if hero.isReady("jump"):
                hero.jumpTo(enemy)
            elif hero.isReady("punch"):
                hero.punch(enemy)
            if hero.isReady("bash"):
                hero.bash(enemy)
            else:
                hero.attack(enemy)
        elif hero.health <= enemy.health:
            hero.moveXY(36, 62)
            hero.shield(enemy)
        else:
            hero.moveXY(36, 62)

here it is

Try using the cleave sword and jumping into the midst of the archers at the start, then cleaving, then attacking the enemy hero.
Works for a lot of people.
You could also researching the extensive collection of similar topics to this one (92 to be exact . I’m sure there’s something in there that can help you):

[milton.jinich]

Thanks for the tip Deadpool198. I should have noted the cleave stuff. I can produce that piece of code it you want to.

[lukas31]

The clone code is basically a mirror of your equipment and has this code

while True:
    Enemy = hero.findnearestenemy()
    if Enemy:
        hero.attack()

My advise is

use simple sword, and use special moves. Cleave sword is also really good

[milton.jinich]

And for the attack thing you just put hero.attack() instead you should do hero.attack(Enemy)

[Some_Guy]

Like this?

while True:
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
    if enemy and enemy.type != "sand-yak":
        if enemy.health <= hero.health:
            if hero.isReady("jump"):
                hero.jumpTo(enemy)
            elif hero.isReady("cleave"):
                hero.cleave(enemy)
            elif hero.isReady("bash"):
                hero.bash(enemy)
            elif hero.isReady("punch"):
                hero.punch(enemy)
            else:
                hero.attack(enemy)
    elif enemy and hero.health <= enemy.health:
        hero.say("Help!")
        if hero.distanceTo(enemy) <= 10:
            hero.attack(enemy)
        else:
            hero.moveXY(42, 66)
            hero.shield()
    else:
        hero.moveXY(42, 66)

But it won’t detect the enemy health anymore

[Some_Guy]

Ive been stuck on this level for almost a month now and i really need some hints on how to best do this

while True:
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
    if enemy and enemy.type != "sand-yak":
        if hero.canCast("chain-lightning"):
            hero.moveXY(49, 42)
            hero.moveXY(81, 51)
            hero.cast("chain-lightning", enemy)
        elif hero.isReady("cleave"):
            hero.cleave(enemy)
        elif hero.isReady("bash"):
            hero.bash(enemy)
        else:
            hero.attack(enemy)
    else:
        enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()

[milton.jinich]

Maybe for the cleave thing, you might want jump to the enemy then cleave.

            hero.moveXY(81, 51)
            hero.cast("chain-lightning", enemy)
        elif hero.isReady("cleave") and hero.isReady("jump"):
            hero.jumpTo(enemy)
            hero.cleave(enemy)
        elif hero.isReady("bash"):
            hero.bash(enemy)
        else:
            hero.attack(enemy)
    else:
        enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()

[sci12]

@Some_Guy

   else:
        enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()

Try removing this, you don’t need to define enemy twice.

[Some_Guy]

I did that because for some reason it won’t find the new nearest enemy when i kill the first one

[Some_Guy]

I deleted some code and fiddled with it and it mangaed to work.
I think i over complicated it : /

[milton.jinich]

Congrats man !!!
