4,631 PointsWhy break out from the loop if we do damage to one of the invaders, when there are more invaders in the array?
So basically he wrote if the invader is in range and is also active. We give him 1 damage and then exit the loop. But why? We have just damaged one invader. Shouldn't we check also the other invaders in the array?
Can someone please clarify this for me a bit further?
Thx!

I assume this is done because if each tower could hit every invader in range during each turn, the towers would always win very quickly.
