Dear all,  
i find that this level is very interesting, but…  
After having defined `lowH=lowestHealthPaladin()`, checked that it is not `None` and that the current `paladin.canCast("heal")`, i use

```python
self.command(paladin, "cast", "heal", lowH)

```

as suggested in the comments and no-one is healed. I am sure the previous points are correct, since target is actually the lowest health paladin, but simply the cast does not work.  
Is there a bug? Does someone else have the same problem?

Give us your entire code; maybe there’s something in there that blocks it.

@steog88 please give us the entire block of code. You might have a issue in your code that is causing your code to not heal you.  
Thanks,

Thank you in advance!  
I used `say` to check if the code enters the `if`, and it does, so the conditions are verified. However, the cast still doesn’t work.

First, you don’t need to check to see if `lowH` is `None`, just ask `if lowH:`

Second, your problem is the `shield` command. The `shield`, for some reason, is overriding all other commands, so your paladins won’t heal, only shield.

Thank you @ChronistGilver, in fact `else:` before the `shield` command solved the issue.

@Catsync Is it my imagination or is the reward backwards?

Hmm, Glitch may be right on.

It still shows “Loading” so I hit “esc”, it removed the bottom half of the image (the part with scores) leaving the top “0” portion and seems stuck now (nothing responds, links, more “Esc”, etc). Next I “back” buttoned, got the Moutain Map with the Victory display over it still…

…Welcome to the Twilight Zone…

Yup, must have been a Twilight Zone Glitch

Although, I am wondering why I have the same total gems? (since I didn’t succeed at the bonus, previously . . . the first image was my first success at submitting and this image is my second.) @Catsync

Yes, that happened to me as well. I got the bonus without fulfilling the requirements.

whenever i run the code  
I get the message:  
Line 45: tmp384[tmp385] is not a function  
What does this mean and how can I fix my code?

Hello, arkustrew, and welcome.

Line 45 is `peasant.move(coin)`. Peasants do not take commands in this way. Command them using your Boss Star.

```python
self.command(friend, "move" place_you_want_your_friend_to_move)

```

Also, you should tell your peasants to move to the coin’s position, not the coin itself.

Please format your code according to the FAQ, as **everyone** should to before posting even once.

Phrases like “I need help!” or “This code isn’t working!” are not helpful to us, or to you, in any way possible. Give us more information, e.g your code (properly formatted), the error (if any), and perhaps a screenshot of what happens when you run it.

You first have to check if the paladin can cast `"heal"` in the first place. Otherwise, it won’t work. Also, paladins can’t speak.
