I have reached the level pet translator and I am stuck on this one part. It says “// Your pet should translate commands.” and I have no idea what I am supposed to write. I have never seen this prompt before and the hints/methods don’t help. Maybe its something easy I am missing but I don’t see it. I have looked up online and like normal only can find java and python versions but in their code its not even in it. Any help?

Hi @ValentyP, welcome to the CodeCombat Discourse!

You can disregard that comment, it’s supposed to be at the top of the code, on line 1.

Try removing the `else` and all of its contents (lines 33-35)  
It slows down your ‘hero’ and your code, and it’s not necessary
