I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Please help. I looked up how to add a custom constructor. I thought I was doing it right but I guess not. haha It's something with the syntax and i've been stuck for a while. :/
public class Spaceship {
public Spaceship () {
mType = "SHUTTLE";
}
public Spaceship (String type) {
mType = type;
}
public String getType() {
return mType;
}
public void setType(String type) {
mType = type;
}
}

15,193 PointsSo it's clear for future students having an issue with this challenge, the original poster had problems because they accidentally erased the String declaration. The answer to the challenge is below.
public class Spaceship {
public String mType;
// Answer to task 1 of 2
public Spaceship () {
mType = "SHUTTLE";
}
// Answer to task 2 of 2
public Spaceship (String type) {
mType = type;
}
public String getType() {
return mType;
}
public void setType(String type) {
mType = type;
}
}
