Not sure why this isn’t working can someone help. It doesn’t show any error message.

You could try hero.now() in place of hero.time? Sorry if I’m completely wrong, that’s just my best guess.

Or try this [units[i].id, units[j].id] in place of what you have now

Still the same. (20 chars)

Oh well. I’m not sure what else needs to be fixed.
