My hero only kills the first ogre, not the second one.

Hi Lydia,

I had the same problem.

I just put these lines in twice. Not sure if that’s how your supposed to do it, but it works!

@jka2706: You can emulate a do while loop
Instead of:

    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()    
    if enemy:
        while enemy.health > 0:
            hero.attack(enemy)
        enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()

write:

    while True:
        enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()     
        if enemy:
            while enemy.health > 0:
                hero.attack(enemy)
        else:
            break

Lidia is using Naria and often the default code for a warrior will not be the same for a ranger. The above code can be modified to:

    while True:
        enemy = hero.findNearest(hero.findByType("scout"))
        # not to be distarcted by brawlers or yeti        
        if enemy and hero.distanceTo(enemy) < 15:
            while enemy.health > 0:
                hero.attack(enemy)
        else:
            break
