going through the haxe game tutorial and im stuck at part 8 due to my game crashing

[suskbak]

after some experimenting i found out the bit of code that is doing this is the "else if (entity.name == "coin")
coins.add(new Coin(entity.x, entity.y));}"

i tried searching it up but got nothing, and i dont really know what is wrong, can someone help?

here is the code

https://pastebin.com/vHb9Kg4C (player code)
https://pastebin.com/g3u5k3uc (coin code)

help would be greatly appreciated

When placeEntities gets run, your coin group hasnt been initialized yet. Try moving coins = new FlxTypedGroup up to above the map.loadEntities call.

sorry for the late response, your suggestion worked and it made it not crash when running the game, thank you.
