**Post date:** [April 8, 2021, 5:33pm UTC](https://forum.makecode.com/t/fortnite-game/7249/12 "2021-04-08T17:33:05Z")

</div>

First, you should always put your code between backticks, like this:  
```typescript  
// My code here  
```  
Becomes:

```typescript
// My code here

```

(The “typescript” after the backticks will make the code syntax highlight)

Next, you should always indent. I can’t tell if you are indenting because you didn’t put the code between backticks. So your code should look like this:

```typescript
controller.left.onEvent(ControllerButtonEvent.Pressed, function() {
    game.splash(“Locker”)
    let Locker: 1
})
forever(function() {
    if (Locker == 1 ) {
        
    }
})

```

There are two problems:

1. The way to define variables is like: `let <variable_name>: <variable_type> = <starting_value>`. So it should be `let Locker: number = 1`.
2. Since you defined `Locker` inside the `controller.left.onEvent` function there is a high chance of `Locker` not being defined in when it is referenced in the `forever` function. One way to solve this (albeit slightly frowned upon when you can avoid it but whatever) is to use global variables. So you have to move the definition out of the function and put it at the very beginning.

Try to figure it yourself! If you can’t figure it out, here is the solution:

```typescript
let Locker: number = 1
controller.left.onEvent(ControllerButtonEvent.Pressed, function() {
    game.splash(“Locker”)
})
forever(function() {
    if (Locker == 1 ) {
        
    }
})

```

</div>

i used the solution but now my new code isn’t working either, saying there is a expression expected:

let Locker: number = 1  
controller.left.onEvent(ControllerButtonEvent.Pressed, function() {  
game.splash(“Locker”)  
})  
forever(function() {  
if (Locker == 1 ) {  
if (controller.A.isPressed() ()

)  
}})

</div>

It’s because you didn’t close the `if` statement properly - it should be something like this:

```typescript
if (statement) {
   // your code here
}

```

Solution:

```typescript
forever(function() {
    if (Locker == 1) {
        if (controller.A.isPressed()) {
            
        }
    }
})

```

Maybe it would help to do it in blocks and switch to TypeScript to see how it actually works???

Press A to loot. when you press B, if the last thing you got was a weapon, you ambush/raid enemies with it.
