in hero.findFriends():

Is Hector not your friend as well? I think he is, and he cannot be commanded – that’s your error. (hero.findByType("sold…))

def commandSoldiers():
    friends = hero.findFriends()
    for soldier in hero.findFriends():

maybe you can do

def commandSoldiers():
     soldiers = hero.findByType("soldier")
     for soldier in soldiers:

and then command them to attack

[LunaFromTheMoon]

My new code:

# If the peasant is damaged, the flowers will shrink!

def summonSoldiers():
    if hero.gold >= hero.costOf("soldier"):
        hero.summon("soldier")

# Define the function: commandSoldiers
def commandSoldiers():
    soldiers = hero.findByType("soldier")
    for soldier in soldiers():
        enemy = soldier.findNearestEnemy()
        soldiers = hero.findByType("soldier")
        if enemy:
            hero.command(soldier, "attack", enemy)

# This function commands your soldiers to attack their nearest enemy.
# Define the function: pickUpNearestCoin
def pickUpNearestCoin():
    items = hero.findItems()
    nearestCoin = hero.findNearest(items)
    if nearestCoin:
        hero.move(nearestCoin.pos)

while True:
    summonSoldiers()
    # commandSoldiers()
    # pickUpNearestCoin()
    commandSoldiers()
    pickUpNearestCoin()

It says “soldiers is not a function”

@LunaFromTheMoon

soldiers = hero.findByType(“soldier”)

get rid of this you dont need it and

soldiers()

in line 9 needs to be changed to

hero.findFriends()

does it work now?

[LunaFromTheMoon]

No, it still says the same error “soldiers is not a function”

[098765432123]

can i see your code?

[LunaFromTheMoon]

# If the peasant is damaged, the flowers will shrink!
def summonSoldiers():
    if hero.gold >= hero.costOf("soldier"):
        hero.summon("soldier")

# Define the function: commandSoldiers
def commandSoldiers():
    soldiers = hero.findByType("soldier")
    for soldier in soldiers():
        friends = hero.findFriends()
        if enemy:
            hero.command(soldier, "attack", enemy)

# This function commands your soldiers to attack their nearest enemy.
# Define the function: pickUpNearestCoin
def pickUpNearestCoin():
    items = hero.findItems()
    nearestCoin = hero.findNearest(items)
    if nearestCoin:
        hero.move(nearestCoin.pos)

while True:
    summonSoldiers()
    # commandSoldiers()
    # pickUpNearestCoin()
    commandSoldiers()
    pickUpNearestCoin()

get rid of line 8 does it work now?

[LunaFromTheMoon]

No, I’m pretty sure you need that to define “soldiers”

[098765432123]

ok im pretty sure i found the issue so you do need this

enemy = soldier.findNearestEnemy()

(sorry about that) in line 8 then you need to add

if enemy:

and soldier.type == "soldier"

ok? edit: you need to combine the two on the same line does it work now?

@LunaFromTheMoon

for soldier in soldiers():

Delete the parenthesis.

[DimaP]

@LunaFromTheMoon

soldiers()

I think problem is here. Try to delete ().

i needed the () to suceed

@LunaFromTheMoon

def commandSoldiers():
soldiers = hero.findByType(“soldier”)
for soldier in soldiers():
friends = hero.findFriends()
if enemy:
hero.command(soldier, “attack”, enemy)

should be

def commandSoldiers():
    soldiers = hero.findByType("soldier")
    for soldier in soldiers:
        friends = hero.findFriends()
        enemy = soldier.findNearestEnemy()
        if enemy:
            hero.command(soldier, "attack", enemy)

I did that and it worked fine.

[LunaFromTheMoon]
