I can’t command the soldiers to attack

while True:
    # Move to the nearest coin.
    coin = hero.findNearestItem()
    soldiers = hero.findFriends()
    soldierIndex = 0
    soldier = soldiers[soldierIndex]
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy
    # Use move instead of moveXY so you can command constantly.
    hero.move(coin.pos)
    # If you have funds for a soldier, summon one.
    if hero.gold > hero.costOf("soldier"):
        hero.summon("soldier")
        soldierIndex += 1
        soldiers = hero.findFriends()
        soldierIndex = 0
        
        # Loop over all your soldiers and order them to attack.
        if soldierIndex >= 1:
            hero.command(soldier, "attack", enemy)
            soldier = soldiers[soldierIndex]
            solierIndex -= 1
            # Use the 'attack' command to make your soldiers attack.
            #hero.command(soldier, "attack", enemy)\```

No need for the soldierIndex, or the soldier = soldiers[soldierIndex]. In your if loop, summon a soldier, that’s all. Then have a for loop:

for soldier in soldiers:

Then command soldier to attack enemy if the enemy exists. For your coins, if there is a coin, move to the coin’s position.
