Grim Determination. Can't get paladins to attack

1

Hi. I would really appreciate some help with my code. I can’t get my paladins to attack nor shield. I don’t get any coding errors, but I’m pretty sure I’ve misplaced something.
Here is my code:
// Your goal is to protect Reynaldo

// Find the paladin with the lowest health.
this.lowestHealthPaladin = function() {
    var lowestHealth = 99999;
    var lowestFriend = null;
    var friends = this.findFriends();
    for(var f=0; f < friends.length; f++) {
        var friend = friends[f];
        if(friend.type != "paladin") { continue; }
        if(friend.health < lowestHealth && friend.health < friend.maxHealth) {
            lowestHealth = friend.health;
            lowestFriend = friend;
        }
    }
    return lowestFriend;
};

this.commandPaladin = function(paladin) {
    // Heal the paladin with the lowest health using lowestHealthPaladin()
    // You can use paladin.canCast("heal") and command(paladin, "cast", "heal", target)
    // Paladins can also shield: command(paladin, "shield")
    var lowestPaladin = this.lowestHealthPaladin();
    var enemy = paladin.findNearestEnemy();

    if (lowestPaladin && paladin.canCast("heal")) {
        this.command(paladin, "cast", "heal", lowPal);
    }
    else if (paladin.health < paladin.maxHealth /3) {
        this.command(paladin, "shield");
    }    
    else if (enemy) {
        this.command(paladin, "attack", enemy);
    }
};

this.commandPeasant = function(friend) {
    friends = this.findByType("peasant");
    for (var i=0; i < friends.length; i++) {
        friend = friends[i];
        coins = this.findItems();
        nearestCoin = friend.findNearest(coins);
        if (i === 0 && nearestCoin.pos.y <= 40){
           this.command(friend, "move", nearestCoin.pos);
        }
        else if (i === 1 && nearestCoin.pos.y > 40){
            this.command(friend, "move", nearestCoin.pos);
        }
    }
};

this.commandGriffin = function(friend) {
    var enemy = friend.findNearestEnemy();
    if (enemy) {
        this.command(friend, "attack", enemy);
    }
};

this.commandFriends = function() {
    // Command your friends.
    var friends = this.findFriends();
    for(var i=0; i < friends.length; i++) {
        var friend = friends[i];
        if (friend.type == "peasant") {
            this.commandPeasant(friend);
        } else if (friend.type == "griffin-rider") {
            this.commandGriffin(friend);
        } else if (friend.type == "paladin") {
            this.commandPaladin(friend);
        }
    }
};

loop {
    this.commandFriends();
    // Summon griffin riders!
    if (this.gold > this.costOf("griffin-rider")){
        this.summon("griffin-rider");
    }
     // Move Paladins forward to avoid the enemy missile blowback into mine field
    var friends = this.findFriends();
    for (var i = 0; i < friends.length; i++) {
        var friend = friends[i];
        if (friend.type == "paladin"){
            var friendPOSx = 80;
            var friendPOSy = friend.pos.y;
            var friendPOS = {'x':friendPOSx,'y':friendPOSy};
            this.command(friend, "move", friendPOS );
        }
    }
}

There is a line in your loop that reads if (friend.type == "paladin"){. There are only two equals signs, when there should be three.

Thanks. It was the loop, although not the ===…
