my student are trying to play the level Coinicopia and the level will not let their code run. The level glitches really quick and goes straight back to the “run: submit” area.

Any ideas

Are there any messages when the level glitches? Is there anything in the javascript console?

Just tested the level now. Works for me. If I had an actual code that makes the game glich maybe I could help more.

Instead of respond with a new post, I’ve just edited my previous one : with the code provided, I couldn’t reproduce the glitch. Never happened to me before either. No clue from me. Sorry ☹

It works for me as well. I can run it but two of my students can’t.

```python
flag = self.findFlag()
loop:
    flag = self.findFlag()
    if flag:
        self.pickUpFlag(flag)
        

```

When there is no flag, your code runs really fast, because you take no action in these frames. This _might_ cause the glitch, though I thought `loop`s were safe from this. Ask these students to try and change there code to

```python
loop:
    flag = self.findFlag()
    if flag:
        self.pickUpFlag(flag)
    else:
        self.say("zzzZZZzzz") #This also counts as action

```

This code is still not working.

```python
loop:
    flag = self.findFlag()
    if flag:
        self.pickUpFlag(flag)
    else:
        self.say("zzzZZZzzz")    

```

Is it in Internet Explorer? We have noticed some problems with that, especially in IE9. Do they see any better results if they use Google Chrome?

I’ll look. We use both Chrome and IE, but I tell the kids to use Chrome. They may not have listened.

I have experienced this same problem they need to go into their inventory before starting the level and equip the flag

Hi Some\_Guy,

Welcome to the forum!

That’s great that you’ve found a solution, but the rest of the conversation took place 6 years ago. I’m guessing that class isn’t still stuck on the same problem 😆.

Thanks for trying to help, but please don’t bring up dead topics.

Thanks,

Jenny

I know I should not be replaying to this topic anymore, but shouldn‘t this be categorized as either level help or bugs?
