why  
does  
my  
hero  
not  
move  
in  
every  
level  
i  
go  
into

```python
# To grab the most gold quickly, just go after gold coins.
while True:
    coins = hero.findItems()
    coinIndex = 0
    # Wrap this into a loop that iterates over all coins.
    while coinIndex < len(coins):
        coin = coins[coinIndex]# Gold coins are worth 3.
        if coin.value == 3:
            # Only pick up gold coins.
            hero.moveXY(coin.pos.x, coin.pos.y)
            coinIndex += 1
        pass
    

```

Look at where you’ve put coinIndex += 1. It’s inside the if coin.value == 3 statement. What will happen if the first coin you loop through is silver or bronze? That if statement won’t run, and coinIndex won’t increase.

So move it to just the while true? and that might solve?

Maybe you should try it? But no, not to the while True loop. Just outside the if loop. Experiment and see what works.

All you need to do is put `coinIndex += 1` in the while loop
