You appear to have created this post without editing the template. Please edit your post to Tell us what’s happening in your own words.

Now that you have a cave location object, update your goCave function to call update and pass that new cave location. Remember that this is the third element in your locations array.

Hi @alfaizolmigos

Your code looks almost entirely correct, besides calling on the 4th element, not the 3rd. Remember that 0 is the 1st element. Also drop the quotation marks.
