Instructions

Description

Getting Unstuck Day 20: choose one of your projects from a previous day of Getting Unstuck, make a copy of it, and revise it. For this project I revisited an earlier game I made for Day 9 and 18. There was some code that I couldn't get working properly (the food sensing the ant and assigning points based on the costume). I had put a request in the forum and had some good advice. I still couldn't get the code working and gave up. Because the Scratchers giving me advice were ALOT more experienced than I, I figured they must know what they are talking about and the code should work. So I decided to revisit this same project, determined to figure out the code. After looking at it I found the problem (conflicting actions) and was able to make it work, just like they said it should! I think several things worked: 1) I needed the break from the pervious day to see it all with fresh eyes 2) determination, knowing that the code SHOULD work. Therefore there was a problem somewhere that I needed to find 3) help from others
