@rors I keep getting an error message on all of my global variables in level 2 and I don't know how to fix it I even visited one of the new school tutors and she had no idea why I kept getting this error message:
NameError: global name 'position' is not defined

Hi @sgodycki. I forked your code so that I could make edits, and added some comments. Just to make sure you can see that, you can find it here:

Let me know if that helps.
