Level: Leave It To Cleaver Help (solved)

#1

Hey,

so I can’t seem to beat this level when most others seemed to be relatively easy. I simply get an error every time that says “function cleaveWhenClose() not defined”. The point of the level is to define a function and I feel as if I’ve put in all the code it requires as well as tried to play with it for hours to no avail.

`-- This shows how to define a function called cleaveWhenClose
– The function defines a parameter called target

function cleaveWhenClose(target)

if hero:distanceTo(target) < 5 then
     -- Put your attack code here
     -- If cleave is ready, then cleave target
    if hero:isReady("cleave") then
        hero:cleave(target)
     -- else, just attack target!
    else 
        hero:attack(target)  
    end
end

end
– This code is not part of the function.
while true do
local enemy = hero:findNearestEnemy()
if enemy then
– Note that inside cleaveWhenClose, we refer to the enemy as target.
cleaveWhenClose(enemy)
end
end
`
This is my code. Idk if it formatted correctly.

You need to scope your functions like you do variables.

Try:

local function cleaveWhenClose(target)

Thanks! This has been an issue for me for variables and I had thought about it for the function but just in a weird, roundabout way. This solved it for me

#4

What would this look like in java script?

#5

If you need help with the level, copy paste your code and surround it top and bottom with 3 backticks ( ` )

#6 
if(hero.distanceTo(target) < 5) {
        if(hero.distanceTo(enemy) < 5) {
        var ready = hero.isReady("cleave");
        hero.cleave(enemy); }                              
        
        else {
            hero.attack(enemy);
        }
    }
}

#7

Did you define target or enemy in your code?

#8

No, lol I Can’t believe I missed that, Thanks.

#9

what deos it translate to in python?

#10

i need help with the programe

#11

I think there is a laguage trasnlator

#12

I am having a hard time with the code because when I push run it does everything except after my hero cleaves he doesn’t attack and dies after 21 seconds. Plz reply soon…

#13

What is your code?
When you post it post it properly please.

Thank you.

# The function defines a parameter called `target`
def cleaveWhenClose(target):
    if hero.distanceTo(target) < 5:
        pass
        # Put your attack code here
        # If cleave is ready, then cleave target
        ready = hero.isReady("cleave")
        hero.cleave(target)
        # else, just attack `target`!
        hero.attack(target)

# This code is not part of the function.
while True:
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
    if enemy:
        # Note that inside cleaveWhenClose, we refer to the `enemy` as `target`.
        cleaveWhenClose(enemy)

also you know how the character is supposed to attack after he cleaves there is another ogre he says “but it’s dead” and it lets the ogre attack him.

#16 
def cleaveWhenClose(target):
    if hero.distanceTo(target) < 5:
        ready = hero.isReady("cleave") # you have a boolean variable 
        # use ready before cleaving
            hero.cleave(target)
        # else, just attack `target`!
        # you have been told to use else if cleave is not ready
            hero.attack(target)
