Be Excellent To Each Other

I am trying to use player.getY(), but it says player is not defined. I used player.getX() on the coloured barrier level, so am a little confused.

I just went for a cheap trick of having 4 squares I could stand on which moved it in a certain direction. Hardly advanced AI like they spoke of it the comment.

Bound up four squares and used them like a joypad

Bear in mind that doing such a thing isn't even possible in c#. Tried chucking null at it, and blank before posting that. Currently being thwarted by completely useless errors in level 17. I can think of numerous ways of doing it, but can't get any of them to work and the error messages are useless. Similarly my first solution to the maze did require a simple searching AI, but no longer have the javascript knowhow to even create an array

I want to bind a callback to the phone so that it moves the raft up one place each time I press the button, or to make it switch it's behaviour method to move towards the exit. But I don't know how to reference the raft object?!

findNearest('raft') (or possibly 'dynamic', looking at the api section?) doesn't seem to be defined on the player or the map.

var player = map.getPlayer();
is already in the scope for the editable bit of level 9? Have they changed it since?

There's a variable called raftDirection that tells the raft which direction to move...

Why can't I just change this:

map.defineObject('attackDrone', {
'type': 'dynamic',
'symbol': 'd',
'color': 'red',
'onCollision': function (player) {
player.killedBy('an attack drone');
},
'behavior': function (me) {
moveToward(me, 'player');
}
});

into this:

'behavior': function (me) {
me.onCollision = function(player){};
me['onCollision'] = function(player){};

}

Shouldn't that work? I just want to nop out their lethal attack, basically...
Note: I solved it another way, but I want to know what I'm doing wrong here. The API info seems to suggest what I did is valid?

me.move(dir);
}
});

var dir = 'left';

a = function () {
if (dir == 'left')
dir = 'up';
else if (dir == 'up')
dir = 'right';
else if (dir == 'right')
dir = 'down';
else if (dir == 'down')
dir = 'left';
}

player.setPhoneCallback(a);

map.defineObject('dave', { 'behavior': function(me) {

If the black space lets me put in blank lines, by god that's what I'll do!

get list of adjacent cells. iterate: check type of item in cell, if trap, get canvas and draw X on cell.

all traps are now visible.

I had a similar idea, although it involved moving the teleporters. Won't work - all traps are visible - they have a different symbol. Just some teleporters teleport you onto them. Obvious if you actually follow the code through too.

I just did a search for two specific teleporters, one by the player, one by the exit, and linked the player one to the exit one. Before that I tried creating one by the player, but it threw out all kinds of strange error messages.
Neither me nor my boss particularly understood what the comment hint was about, but both came up with broadly similar solutions

I had a lame idea for a solution which would assign every cell a value based on its distance from the exit, and the robot would pick a random direction from the list of available cells with the lowest value, if the robot was surrounded by cells that were higher in value than the cell it currently occupied, it would set the value of the cell it currently occupied to a high value first before leaping off it to make sure it never visited it again. Crappy pathfinding, but I wanted to see if it made sense.
