my hero never moves. I’ve tried putting the code in, and out of the while true loop. I’ve tried moving the “enemyIndex += 1” around. please help

```python
while True:
    enemies = hero.findEnemies()
    enemyIndex = 0
    
    # Wrap this logic in a while loop to attack all enemies.
    # Find the array's length with: len(enemies)
    while enemyIndex < len(enemies):
        
        enemy = enemies[enemyIndex]
        # "!=" means "not equal to."
        if enemy.type != "sand-yak":
            # While the enemy's health is greater than 0, attack it!
            while enemy.health > 0:
                hero.attack(enemy)
            enemyIndex += 1
            pass
        

# Between waves, move back to the center.
hero.moveXY(40, 32)
   

```

For this level it wants you to pretty much create an over-complicated loop where you want to attack enemies. For this I actually just created a basic loop like this:

```python
while True:
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
    enemyIndex = 0
    if enemy.type != "sand-yak":
        hero.attack(enemy)

```

You should try this out and see if it works for you.

Thanks, that was way easier. My whole code:

```python
while True:
    
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
    if enemy.type != "sand-yak":
        hero.attack(enemy)
        

```

My hero was slow to react to the enemy though.It was wierd. 🤔 🤔

move the hero.moveXY(40, 32) into the while enemyIndex \< len(enemies): loop and add enemyIndex = enemyIndex + 1 below the hero.moveXY

Or if you want to just explain the loops, you can send message.
