also here is my entire code (removed commented code given by level for better reading):

        hero.move(nearestCoin.pos)

def summonSoldier():

        hero.summon("soldier")
    pass


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

while True:
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
    if enemy and hero.distanceTo(enemy) <= 5:
        hero.cast("drain-life", enemy)
    if hero.isReady("summon-burl"):
        hero.cast("summon-burl")

        hero.move({"x":42,"y":38})

            hero.throwCharge(10)

    if hero.time < 40:
        pickUpNearestCoin()
    summonSoldier()
    commandSoldiers()

i think my burl might have some anger issues and should go to a psychologist, but i posted this to check for any alternative causes and solutions

Sorry, but just could not work on AILeague first months so the last arena was a little “dizzy”.
Next months I can time to time jump in and fix bugs and improve it.
So please share bugs and feedback here.

Build "fire-trap"s to stop the ogres from invading.

It’s best if you only build when you see an ogre.

while True:
hero.moveXY(32, 52)
enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()

if enemy:
    
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
    if enemy:
        hero.buildXY("fire-trap", 32, 52)
        
    hero.moveXY(32, 34)
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
    
    if enemy:
        hero.buildXY("fire-trap", 32, 34)
    hero.moveXY(32, 34)
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
    if enemy:
        hero.buildXY("fire-trap", 31, 16)

Any idea what’s going wrong?

my submission for the Star Coder level is stuck. After clicking “Submit,” the button just says “Evaluating the result” but never finishes. Is there a server issue or a way to refresh this?

Little Checklist:

1. My Hero is (the only possible): Ritic, my equipment is in the picture to see.

   

2. The Problem: So I am pretty sure that it is a bug, but who am I to tell that. In the Level you need to build a wall out of magic against projectiles and yetis but for some reason no matter which equipment I use or what code I am writing they just go through the “WaLl oF DaRkNeSs.” The Goal is to survive 70 secs. Here are two pictures where I tried to capture the bug:

   
   

3. My Code: It is nothing fancy, just like the level and hints wanted it to look like. I added flags to get the 70 sec survival counter, but I am dying to fast because of the yetis.

function waitForAndAttack(abilityName) {
    while (true) {
        var greenFlag = hero.findFlag("green");
        if (greenFlag) {
            hero.pickUpFlag(greenFlag);
        }
        
        if (hero.isReady(abilityName)) {
            break;
        }
        var enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy();
        if (enemy && enemy.type !== "yeti" && hero.distanceTo(enemy) < 15) {
            hero.attack(enemy);
        }
    }
}

var SE = {"x": 52, "y": 20};
var NE = {"x": 52, "y": 48};
var NW = {"x": 28, "y": 48};
var SW = {"x": 28, "y": 20};

while (true) {
    var greenFlag = hero.findFlag("green");
    if (greenFlag) {
        hero.pickUpFlag(greenFlag);
    }
    
    hero.wallOfDarkness([SW, NW, NE, SE]);
    waitForAndAttack("wall-of-darkness");
    
    greenFlag = hero.findFlag("green");
    if (greenFlag) {
        hero.pickUpFlag(greenFlag);
    }
    
    hero.wallOfDarkness([NE, SE, SW]);
    waitForAndAttack("wall-of-darkness");
    
    greenFlag = hero.findFlag("green");
    if (greenFlag) {
        hero.pickUpFlag(greenFlag);
    }

    hero.wallOfDarkness([NE, NW, SW]);
    waitForAndAttack("wall-of-darkness");
}

for the record, this works fine:

def heroJump():
jump = game.spawnXY(“fire-trap”, 36, 30)
jump.attackDamage = 0
jump.attackRange = 1

game.on(“keydown”, heroJump)

BUT i just can’t detect a SPECIFIC key (for example, Q) so the player spawns a jump fire trap whenever they press down ANY key on the keyboard.

I was looking at the stats and noticed something interesting. If you summon a Soldier for 20 gold, they can soak up 200 damage.

When I compared this to the King’s Ring, the gold-to-HP efficiency for Soldiers seems to be exactly the same. This got me thinking—if the efficiency doesn’t change, why is the King’s Ring even in the game?
