Space Invader : No Display

Space Invaders before Milestone 3, only a black screen that shows no aliens.

When the code is run, only the laser beams can be seen shot out.

Yup. See https://forum.jiki.io/t/space-invader-black-box/294

Thanks for the reply!
The exercises are quite different though, the link that you shared is the first Space Invaders exercise that uses Functions, and the one that I’m talking about is the upgraded version of the same exercise names Space Invaders: Repeat that uses repeat loops in addition to functions.

Yesterday, the first exercise was working fine for me, i don’t know whether their display problems are independent of each other but none are working now.

I suspect there was a change to some common Space Invader logic/drawing bit that causes the space ship and aliens to not show up. How you solve the exercise is different but both are supposed to display a spaceship, aliens and lasers. Both are not currently showing the spaceship and aliens. It’s possible both have unrelated bugs … but it’s more likely that the shared common assets have one shared bug that affects the drawing.

Fixed. Sorry.

The issue was to do with svgs from exercises not rendering properly (which affected I think 3 exercises, one of which was the space invaders stack).
