You already have the enemy found, don’t you think?

Here check and only if inAttackRange(enemy) returns true attack the enemy.

And put this inside the inAttackRange function (by putting 4 spaces before those lines).

def inAttackRange(enemy):
    distance = hero.distanceTo(enemy)
    if hero.distanceTo(enemy) is <= 3:
    return True
else:
    return False
while True:
    # Find the nearest enemy and store it in a variable.
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
    # Call inAttackRange(enemy), with the enemy as the argument
    enemy = canAttack
    # and save the result in the variable canAttack.
    inAttackRange(enemy);
    # If the result stored in canAttack is True, then attack!
    hero.attack(enemy)
pass

This one should be instead of all of this

And also not use the else anymore. Inside the if statement attack the enemy. and return true out of the loop only if hero.distanceTo(enemy) <= 3.

im confused
what do i get rid of?

Delete this

Put this

after this

Inside of that if that you just moved attack the enemy.
In the place from where you removed the if make another if that checks if the distance between the hero and the enemy is less or equal to 3.

hi its been a while ive been a bit busy ive been trying to complete this level and it wont let me ive tried reprogramming it but it just makes all the trolls wander around then after 30 seconds they attack me and i die.
heres my code but it doesnt tell me what ive done wrong.

# You are trapped. Don't move, it'll be painful.

# This function checks if the enemy is in your attack range.
def inAttackRange(enemy):
    distance = hero.distanceTo(enemy)
    # Almost all swords have attack range of 3.
    if distance <= 3:
        return True
    else:
        return False

# Attack ogres only when they're within reach.
while True:
    # Find the nearest enemy and store it in a variable.
    enemy - hero.findNearestEnemy()
    # Call inAttackRange(enemy), with the enemy as the argument
    # and save the result in the variable canAttack.
    canAttack - inAttackRange(enemy)
    # If the result stored in canAttack is True, then attack!
    if canAttack true:
        hero.attack(enemy)
    pass

Hi @Amber.
Firstly a syntax problem:
You’ve used - to define the variables “enemy” and “canAttack”. That is incorrect, - is a mathematical operator meaning minus. You should use = (like you have in your previous code :arrow_up:), that means “equals”, or “is”.

Just another technical problem. You don’t say “if something True”, you say “if something == True”. (note the T in True is capitalised).
If you want an even simpler solution you can say:

if canAttack:

Now, why is that?
It’s because canAttack is a “boolean” variable. That means it’s True or False. (remember when you returned True or False in your function?)
You can use “if” to check if a boolean variable is set to True.

boolean = True
if boolean:
    hero.say("True!")
else:
    hero.say("False...")

If boolean was True (like in the example) the hero will say “True!”, and if the boolean was False, the hero would say “False…”.
I hope that helps you understand it.
