As of 5 July 2023, CodeMonkey has updated their Grid script, so that it is now different from the one that we have used when we created the Part 3 video. Hence, if you download the latest version of their Grid script while following our tutorial, you will run into errors when trying to use it together with our script.

If you are following our tutorial, please use the Grid script below, instead of the latest one on the CodeMonkey website:

The reason why CodeMonkey’s new Grid doesn’t work now is because in the past, the Grid class was a generic class. This means that, to use and initialise it, you would have to specify a type to use it with:

new Grid<SomeType>( args... );

As of July 2023, the code was changed so that the Grid class is no longer a generic, and can now be initialised using:

new Grid( args... );

This messes up the entire structure of our code, which is why if you try to use the new Grid script, it will cause your code to be unable to compile.
