Make all your towers farms, use `hero.command("shock wave")` and `hero.command("summon", 100)` to attack. ( 100 is an example number, you can summon more 🙂 )

Use this for easy upgrading & managing towers (I haven’t gotten to summoning yet, so ima just post this for now)

```javascript
const allsquares = 'abcdefgh';
const tower = {
    a: {name: 'none', level: 0}, 
    b: {name: 'none', level: 0}, 
    c: {name: 'none', level: 0}, 
    d: {name: 'none', level: 0}, 
    e: {name: 'none', level: 0}, 
    f: {name: 'none', level: 0}, 
    g: {name: 'none', level: 0}, 
    h: {name: 'none', level: 0}
};
const build = (t, s) => {
    if (s.length > 1) {
        let letters = s.split('');
        for (let letter of letters) build(t, letter);
        return;
    }
    hero.build(t, s);
    tower[s].name = t;
    tower[s].level = tower[s].level + 1;
};
const towers = (start, end) => {
    start = (start + 0 === start + '0') ? allsquares.indexOf(start) : start;
    end = (end + 0 === end + '0') ? (allsquares.indexOf(end) + 2) : end;
    let returnVar = [];
    for (let i = start; i < end; i++) returnVar.push(tower[allsquares.charAt(i)]);
    return returnVar;
}
const squares = (start, end) => {
    start = (start + 0 === start + '0') ? allsquares.indexOf(start) : start;
    end = (end + 0 === end + '0') ? (allsquares.indexOf(end) + 2) : end;
    return allsquares.substring(start, end - start);
};
function upgrade (...args) {
    args = args.length > 1 ? args : args[0].split('');
    for (let s of args) build(tower[s].name, s);
}

```

information you need to use the code (because most of you probably don’t understand this code xD):

1. the squares function has 2 ways it can be used: `squares('a', 'd')`, `squares(0, 4)` (both return `'abcd'`)

2. the towers function also has 2 ways it can be used: `towers('a', 'd')`, `towers(0, 4)` (both, ofc, return the same thing: 4 objects with name and level in order)

3. upgrade ALSO has 2 ways it can be used: `upgrade('abcd')`, `upgrade('a', 'b', 'c', 'd')`

4. build **ALSO** has 2 ways it can be used (okay, pretty much all of them have 2 ways they can be used): `build('farm', 'a')`, `build('farm', 'abcd')` (they don’t do the same thing, but you probably already know what both do so ima just keeps my hands on my arms, thanks lol)

5. the `tower` array is accessed using `tower[squareLetter].name` or `tower[squareLetter].level`

Also btw, don’t use `hero.build` with these functions because it can’t read tower level and it needs the normal `build` to do that

Lol I wrote a literal essay in the points earlier but decided it would be too long so I shortened it (still pretty long), PM me about any issues or questions pls (oh and also tell me if you use it pls because it makes me happy :\>)

No it’s not cheating if you use it, it’s called “using functions that should be in-built” lol

`"shockwave"` is useful because it blows back and kills enemies.  
Use : `hero.ability("shockwave")` to make a shockwave.

I think Terrel\_Williams needs the python version of the code that moonwatcher348 posted.
