[SOLVED] Reindeer tender trouble

Level Help
1

soi am doing reindeer Tender but thir is a strang error
my code:

# This is the array of pen positions
penPositions = [ {"x":20,"y":24}, {"x":28,"y":24}, {"x":36,"y":24}, {"x":44,"y":24}, {"x":52,"y":24} ]

# Use this array to keep track of each pen's reindeer.
penOccupants = [ None, None, None, None, None, ]

# And this array contains our reindeer.
friends = hero.findFriends()

# Figure out which reindeer are already in their pens.
for deerIndex in range(len(friends)):
    reindeer = friends[deerIndex]
    
    # For each position check if it matches a reindeer.
    for penIndex in range(len(penPositions)):
        penPos = penPositions[penIndex]
        
        if penPos.x == reindeer.pos.x and penPos.y == reindeer.pos.y:
            # Put the reindeer in occupants at penIndex
            penOccupants[penIndex] = reindeer.id
            # Remove the reindeer from the friends array.
            friends[penIndex] = None
            # break out of the inner loop here:
            break
            pass

# Assign the remaining reindeer to new positions.
for deerIndex in range(len(friends)):
    # If the reindeer is null, use continue:
    reindeer = friends[deerIndex]
    if friends[deerIndex] == None:
        continue
    
    # Look for the first pen with nothing.
    for occIndex in range(len(penOccupants)):
        # If there is nothing, the pen is open:
        if not penOccupants[occIndex]:
            # Put the reindeer in the occupants array.
            penOccupants[occIndex] = reindeer.id
            # Command the reindeer to move to the pen.
            hero.say(reindeer.id + penPositions[occIndex])
            # break out early so we don't reassign:
            break
            pass

the error:

i know you’re not supposed to do this, but will it work if you check for the reindeer before checking it’s pos.x and pos.y?

3

it does not give me the error any more my hero just say the name of a reinderr and then [object Object]

4

hmmm, lemme check my own code but remove what i told you to add because i think it will break your code

5

i removed it (20 chars)

6

i remeber having this problem the first time i did reindeer tender, but i forgot how i fixed it

7

im dumbfounded ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎

try checking for the reindeer again, and instead of doing hero.say(reindeer.id + penPositions[occIndex]), actually command them like a soldier with hero.command()

my new code:

# This is the array of pen positions
penPositions = [ {"x":20,"y":24}, {"x":28,"y":24}, {"x":36,"y":24}, {"x":44,"y":24}, {"x":52,"y":24} ]

# Use this array to keep track of each pen's reindeer.
penOccupants = [ None, None, None, None, None, ]

# And this array contains our reindeer.
friends = hero.findFriends()

# Figure out which reindeer are already in their pens.
for deerIndex in range(len(friends)):
    reindeer = friends[deerIndex]
    
    # For each position check if it matches a reindeer.
    for penIndex in range(len(penPositions)):
        penPos = penPositions[penIndex]
        
        if penPos.x == reindeer.pos.x and penPos.y == reindeer.pos.y:
            # Put the reindeer in occupants at penIndex
            penOccupants[penIndex] = reindeer.id
            # Remove the reindeer from the friends array.
            friends[penIndex] = None
            # break out of the inner loop here:
            break
            pass

# Assign the remaining reindeer to new positions.
for deerIndex in range(len(friends)):
    # If the reindeer is null, use continue:
    reindeer = friends[deerIndex]
    if friends[deerIndex] == None:
        continue
    
    # Look for the first pen with nothing.
    for occIndex in range(len(penOccupants)):
        # If there is nothing, the pen is open:
        if not penOccupants[occIndex]:
            # Put the reindeer in the occupants array.
            penOccupants[occIndex] = reindeer.id
            # Command the reindeer to move to the pen.
            hero.command(reindeer, "move", penPositions[occIndex])
            # break out early so we don't reassign:
            break
            pass

the moved in the code window but when i submited it gave me the same error and acted like it did not know what reindeer pos is

try again, maybe some seeds are bad

12

:melting_face: This took a while:
On line 22 friends[penIndex] needs to be friends[deerIndex]. Otherwise It deletes the reindeer based on the pen positions array instead of the deer array.

13

That also explains why there was only one seed that worked for me :sweat_smile: because the penIndex and deerIndex lined up perfectly.

my new code:

# This is the array of pen positions
penPositions = [ {"x":20,"y":24}, {"x":28,"y":24}, {"x":36,"y":24}, {"x":44,"y":24}, {"x":52,"y":24} ]

# Use this array to keep track of each pen's reindeer.
penOccupants = [ None, None, None, None, None, ]

# And this array contains our reindeer.
friends = hero.findFriends()

# Figure out which reindeer are already in their pens.
for deerIndex in range(len(friends)):
    reindeer = friends[deerIndex]
    
    # For each position check if it matches a reindeer.
    for penIndex in range(len(penPositions)):
        penPos = penPositions[penIndex]
        
        if penPos == reindeer.pos:
            # Put the reindeer in occupants at penIndex
            penOccupants[penIndex] = reindeer.id
            # Remove the reindeer from the friends array.
            friends[deerIndex] = None
            # break out of the inner loop here:
            break
            pass

# Assign the remaining reindeer to new positions.
for deerIndex in range(len(friends)):
    # If the reindeer is null, use continue:
    reindeer = friends[deerIndex]
    if friends[deerIndex] == None:
        continue
    
    # Look for the first pen with nothing.
    for occIndex in range(len(penOccupants)):
        # If there is nothing, the pen is open:
        if not penOccupants[occIndex]:
            # Put the reindeer in the occupants array.
            penOccupants[occIndex] = reindeer.id
            # Command the reindeer to move to the pen.
            hero.command(reindeer, "move", penPositions[occIndex])
            # break out early so we don't reassign:
            break
            pass

my hero is now commanding sleeping deer

15

i changed if penPos == reindeer.pos: to if penPos.x == reindeer.pos.x and penPos.y == reindeer.pos.y: and it worked
