Really, I understand that every function needs a bracket. I'm just not able to find the problem. Maybe I'm not up to speed on these functions yet. Why does super:init() have a '()' after it? Sometimes I'm not sure what function goes with what. Like I said, I'm reduced to randomly placing brackets and deleting them. I'm not saying your compiler has problems, I'm just saying that I do.
Here's my code, there's probably alot of garbage in there because of my attempts to root out the cause:
