So I got this error of the code from the lesson 9. I´m pasting it literally and I am not understanding what is missing. It says it doesn´t have expressions yet, if I copy-paste the programs from the previous lessons everything works smooth. Do you know what I´m missing?

I don´t know how to make the code screen smaller to paste the whole thing but I am literally pasting the whole lesson 9 practice time code.

Thanks in advance.

It looks like there is an issue in the example with the indentation. Here’s the snippet with type errors fixed:

using { /Fortnite.com/Devices }
using { /Verse.org/Simulation }
using { /UnrealEngine.com/Temporary/Diagnostics }
using { /Fortnite.com/Characters }
using { /Fortnite.com/Playspaces }
using { /UnrealEngine.com/Temporary/SpatialMath }

hello_world_device := class(creative_device):

    # Runs when the device is started in a running game
    OnBegin<override>()<suspends>:void=

        Playspace:fort_playspace = GetPlayspace()
        AllPlayers:[]player = Playspace.GetPlayers()
        
        var FirstPosition:transform = transform{}
        var SecondPosition:transform = transform{}
        
        if:
            Player:player = AllPlayers[0]
            FortniteCharacter:fort_character = Player.GetFortCharacter[]
            set FirstPosition = FortniteCharacter.GetTransform()
        then:
            Print("Move or prepare to take damage!")
            Sleep(10.0)
        
        if:
            Player : player = AllPlayers[0]
            FortniteCharacter : fort_character = Player.GetFortCharacter[]
            set SecondPosition = FortniteCharacter.GetTransform()
            DistanceBetweenPositions: float = DistanceXY(FirstPosition.Translation, SecondPosition.Translation)
            DistanceBetweenPositions < 10000.0
        then:
            Print("Distance Moved: {DistanceBetweenPositions}")
            Print("Applying Damage")
            HurtPlayer(50.0)

    # Functions From Previous Lessons
    #################################

    HurtPlayer(DamageAmount : float):void=
        Playspace: fort_playspace = GetPlayspace()
        AllPlayers: []player = Playspace.GetPlayers()
        if (Player : player = AllPlayers[0]):
            if (FortniteCharacter : fort_character = Player.GetFortCharacter[]):
                MyCharacterHealth : float = FortniteCharacter.GetHealth()
                DamageToDo : float = CalculateDamage(MyCharacterHealth, DamageAmount, 1.0)
                Print("Damage To Do: {DamageToDo}")
                FortniteCharacter.Damage(DamageToDo)

    CalculateDamage(PlayerHealth:float, DesiredDamageAmount:float, MinHealth:float):float = 
        # If the damage amount would not eliminate the player, do that amount of damage
        if (PlayerHealth > DesiredDamageAmount):
            return DesiredDamageAmount
        else if (PlayerHealth > MinHealth):
            # Give player one more chance if their health is low
            return PlayerHealth - MinHealth
        else:
            # Eliminate player
            return PlayerHealth

There was an issue with the indentation, thank you for catching that! This has now been fixed in the document.
