There are no glasses which give me `hero:findNearestFriends()`. I have looked in all of them but neither of them do for the level Interception in the desert. I use Lua

I think what you’re looking for is:

```python
friend = hero.findNearest(hero.findFriends())

```

Try that.

Try `local friend=hero.findNearest(hero.findFriends())`

He is in lua? Then you have to format the code in LUA! 🤷‍♂️ 😺  
So, he might need to show us his code, for a level, or something like that

I suppose Chaboi’s version will do. The code does not necessarily depend on its surrounding code. Anyway thanks guys
