Problem - I don’t know how to check if an item is not in excludedItems. I think everything else is fine but here is my code:
function findBestItem(friend, excludedItems) {
var items = friend.findItems();
var bestItem = null;
var bestItemValue = 0;
for(var i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
var item = items[i];
// indexOf searches and array for a certain element:
var idx = excludedItems.indexOf(item);
// If the array doesn't contain it, it returns -1
// In that case, skip over that item as another peasant is targeting it.
if(idx != -1) { continue; }
// Finish the function!
// Remember bestItemValue should be the highest item.value / distanceTo
if (!item in excludedItems) {
if (bestItemValue < item.value / friend.distanceTo(item)) {
bestItemValue = item.value / friend.distanceTo(item);
bestItem = item;
}
}
}
return bestItem;
}
// This function checks if you have enough gold for a decoy.
function enoughGoldForDecoy() {
return hero.gold >= 25;
}
while(true) {
var peasants = hero.findByType("peasant");
// Create a new array every loop.
var claimedItems = [];
for(var i = 0; i < peasants.length; i++) {
var peasant = peasants[i];
var enemy = peasant.findNearestEnemy();
if(enemy) {
// If the peasant is the target of the enemy
// AND the hero has enough gold for a decoy
if (enemy.target == peasant && hero.gold > hero.costOf("decoy")) {
// Command a peasant to build a "decoy":
hero.command(peasant, "buildXY", "decoy", peasant.pos.x - 2, peasant.pos.y);
// Add a continue so the peasant doesn't collect coins when building.
continue;
}
}
var item = findBestItem(peasant, claimedItems);
if(item) {
// After an item is claimed, stick it in the claimedItems array.
claimedItems.push(item);
// Command the peasant to collect the coin:
hero.command(peasant, "move", item.pos);
}
}
}
Help would be most appreciated.
