What it says on the tin. I cannot figure out why this is happening. I am relatively new to the game and entirely inexperienced with Python outside of the simplified version that is in this game (I am using this game as an introduction). I would appreciate some help troubleshooting in a way that helps me understand what I am missing. Thank you!

Here is the section code that keeps producing the extra passes over the rows it plants trees every first square with the second and third squares being carrots.

for j in range(get_world_size()):

		if can\_harvest():

harvest()

		plant(Entities.Tree)

		get\_water()

		if get\_water() == 0:

use_item(Items.Water)

		move(North)

		if can\_harvest():

harvest()

		plant(Entities.Carrot)

		if get\_water() == 0:

use_item(Items.Water)

		move(North)

		if can\_harvest():

harvest()

		plant(Entities.Carrot)

		if get\_water() == 0:

use_item(Items.Water)

		move(North)

Full Code, JIC:

while True:

if num\_items(Items.Hay) <= 10000000:

	for j in range(get\_world\_size()):

		if can\_harvest():

harvest()

		plant(Entities.Grass)

		get\_water()

		if get\_water() == 0:

use_item(Items.Water)

		move(North)

	move(East)

elif num\_items(Items.Hay) <= 15000000:

	for j in range(get\_world\_size()):

		if can\_harvest():

harvest()

		plant(Entities.Tree)

		get\_water()

		if get\_water() == 0:

use_item(Items.Water)

		move(North)

		if can\_harvest():

harvest()

		plant(Entities.Carrot)

		if get\_water() == 0:

use_item(Items.Water)

		move(North)

		if can\_harvest():

harvest()

		plant(Entities.Carrot)

		if get\_water() == 0:

use_item(Items.Water)

		move(North)

	move(East)

	for j in range(get\_world\_size()):

		if can\_harvest():

harvest()

		plant(Entities.Carrot)

		get\_water()

		if get\_water() == 0:

use_item(Items.Water)

		move(North)

	move(East)

I am succesfully planting all cacti using multi drones (i only have the one extra). I am looking for help getting my sort_coloumn() function to work. i have tried a lot of diffrent things, to make it work myself and it just dont work. i really want it to be so close to my code as possible and it does not have to be efficient. sorry for my bad english rn im tired af

def sort_coloumn():

swapped = True

while swapped:

	swapped = False

	if measure() > measure(North):

		move(North)

		swapped = True

	move(North)

def sort_all_coloumn():

move\_to\_x\_pos(0)

for i in range(grid\_size):

	move\_to\_x\_pos(i)

	drone = spawn\_drone(sort\_coloumn)

	move(East)

	wait\_for(drone)

I see this game reccomended a lot for beginners.
Does that mean it would maybe be too easy/boring for someone that did graduate not too long time ago?

Piece of the code it's getting hung up on: if get_pos_x() > x: while get_pos_x() != x: move(West)

Situation:

Trying to make a script, that does the following:

Plants bush on entire farm Creates max_Drones() coords, then deploys drones to go to these coordinates, and standby to execute maze solving code All drones solve maze

The problem happens specifically between steps 2 and 3. The drones go to their spot, until the maze spawns and they're blocked from moving. It actually happens while using that function to pathfind.

Instead of being stuck in a loop of trying to move where they can't (which is what I was trying to solve before the code broke), the game throws that error.

Notably, the code USED to work. Then I tried to implement can_move() logic and it permanently broke, even after reverting the changes. Says I'm trying to call the operator on the function instead of its return, suggesting to use ()... which is already there.

Thoughts?

NOTE: this code is imported from a utility file to the main maze solver file. The "error on missing ()" is also toggled off in settings.

This game is currently on sale and I am on the fence, I want to buy it to get into coding but currently have 0 experience. I also believe the language is very similar to Python.

1.) Do I need to learn to code before hoping into this game?

2.) Can this game actually help me become good at coding considering I have never coded but really want to?

3.) Do I need to learn material outside of the game to finish it?

First time in this sub, not sure if these types of posts are allowed.
