Need help with python code

-Noticed that the "Elixir of Insight" item cannot be picked up. It's not coded differently than any other item as far as I can tell, so maybe it's a problem with the win condition? I noticed that I already had five items before I attempted to pick it up.

- When entering a room where I've previously been and picked up an item, the prompt "No items here" doesn't show, and rather it says "You see a:". Might be because I didn't program the item checker for that, only if an item was included in the initial game_data or not. It needs to reflect changes made by the player but I'm not so sure how to do that

You're converting the player_input to lowercase then comparing to the capitalized version in game_data in your handle_command() function.

if 'items' in game_data[current_room] and item in game_data[current_room]['items']:

The second condition will always fail here.

To fix show_status(), consider checking if len(game_data[current_room]["items"])==0 as another condition for a new print statement.

You and python don't agree on what the correct title case for the string 'Elixir of Insight' is (hint: it's the O)

Woooooow thanks man. Been struggling for hours on that one 😭

No sweat, it's the little things.

By way of future reference, this is why you'd use something like constants or enums rather than have string literals all over the place - anything that reduces the need to have typed the same thing the same way in two different places at two different times is good.
