alice-teacher Alice 2 - Possible Bug in Alice built-in Tutorial 4 (lunar lander)

[O'Malley, Sean]

This also happened with a Windows 8.1 install.  I never did figure out the cause, so I just switched to using the Duke tutorials with my son.

Subject: alice-teacher Alice 2 - Possible Bug in Alice built-in Tutorial 4 (lunar lander)

One of my students discovered a possible Bug in Alice built-in Tutorial 4 (lunar lander) in the Help -> Tutorials menu. I tried it and got the same error message within the tutorial.

We are using Alice 2.4.1 on Windows 7 machines.

When you get to the place in the tutorial that has you add the “beachChair” to the world, then click “next”, the tutorial tells you that you’ve made a mistake. (SEE PICTURE BELOW)

Are we both doing something wrong or is there a bug – possibly 2.4.1 isn’t quite compatible with the tutorial?

Thanks,
Deane
