# Collect coins.

if coin:
hero.moveXY(coin.pos.x, coin.pos.y)
pass
def summonTroops():
# Summon soldiers if you have the gold.
if hero.gold < hero.costOf("soldier"):

# Arguments are like variables.
# The value of an argument is determined when the function is called.
def commandSoldier(soldier):

enemy = soldier.findNearestEnemy()
if enemy:
hero.command(soldier, "attack", target)
pass
# Write a commandArcher function to tell your archers what to do!
# It should take one argument that will represent the archer passed to the function when it's called.
# Archers should only attack enemies who are closer than 25 meters, otherwise, stay still.
def commandarcher(archer):
enemy = archer.findNearest(hero.findEnemies())
if enemy:
hero.command(archer, "attack", enemy)
else:
hero.command(archer, "move", archer.pos)
while True:
pickUpCoin()
summonTroops()
friends = hero.findFriends()
for friend in friends:
if friend.type == "soldier":
# This friend will be assigned to the variable soldier in commandSoldier
commandSoldier(friend)
elif friend.type == "archer":
# Be sure to command your archers.
commandarcher(friend)
pass
Don’t you think that you got wrong the sign?

Here also check if the distance to the enemy is less than 25 meters. (PS and to get the bonus command the soldiers to retreat behind the archers when they are low on health)

)
With archer.distanceTo(enemy).
