Got a message that says 'infinite loop detected', can move on

I don’t know what to to! Noob here.

It says" The initial code to build the world never finished running. It’s probably either really slow or has an infinite loop. Or there might be a bug. You can either try running this code again or reset the code to the default state. If that doesn’t fix it, please let us know."

This is me letting someone know. Help please. :smile:

Hey Deelas, what programming language are you using? If it’s not JavaScript or Python, it’s a bit easier to get infinite loops. You can try the “comment out my code” button to get into the level. Also, what level is it?

Otherwise, when it says that, please open up the Chrome JS console and look for error messages it might be giving you about why it can’t run the world. You can just paste the whole log here.

Hope to get you online soon!

Thanks for replying Nick, I am using the Python language. I tried to select each button and nothing worked. I couldn’t even comment on my code. I don’t think I understand where I am suppose to create the actual code for the level. The only place I have had the opportunity to enter code is in the actually game. Like self.moveRight(). Is there a tutorial or am I suppose to learn by doing?

The level is Raise the Sword, last thing I recall doing was choosing a new character, Hanzo, and purchasing spells and other equipment.

Hi Nick! One more noob here )
I’ve got similar error on the “Dread Door” Level.
Error message: "Code never finished. It’s either really slow or has an infinite loop"
Mission where we need to destroy the Door
CofeeScript language.
My code:

loop
    @attack "Door"

I tried to close the loop with “return” and “moveUp”, but it didn’t help.
Will it be helpful to post all JS Console Log here?
I’m really noob with web development, so don’t be strict )

Sounds like a bug! Yeah, posting the JS console log here will help a lot.

Hey Nick, I figured it out thanks!

Deelas, what was the solution? you can’t just say you figured it out and not explain how!! :smile: but seriously…

LOL, sorry. Well I thought about the last thing I did. Before that level I upgraded my armor and shield. After looking at the JS I saw it mentioning that it kept saying it couldn’t find certain things. So I just went back and removed the items that I equipped. I don’t think we are suppose to manipulated things at that stage of the game. Afterward everything worked fine.

I concluded it was either that or nick fixed something and didn’t say, and I just happened to change my armor afterward( lucky timing) lol.

@R_A I see it’s a CoffeeScript bug that I haven’t been able to work around yet. Sorry about this; it’s on my list. For now, I’d suggest trying JS or Python when CoffeeScript doesn’t work like this.

I actually don’t think it is an error. The error is that you allow and even recommend completion using this method. Sure the goal will be achieved, but the loop would continue. Of course this requires teaching conditions and loop breaks.

Used CoffeeScript with 3 hidden statements (if, not(!), break) to break the loop:

loop
    enemy = @findNearestEnemy()
    if !enemy
        break
    @attack enemy

Although yea the loop would continue until time runs out, so maybe not that bad.

Well i don’t know if it’s really the solution but an hour ago i encountered the same problem.
And when i opened it in an Incognito Browser it worked :slight_smile: silly, right?)
