Engine symbol unresolved - java help on CodeGym

I typed the import statement: import com.codegym.engine.cell.*; but got an error message saying cannot resolve symbol engine. Has anyone come across this issue?

Let's write the entertaining Minesweeper game.

Rules of the game:

The playing field is divided into adjacent cells (squares), some of which contain "mines".
The objective of the game is to clear the field, i.e. reveal all cells that don't contain mines.
If a cell with a mine is revealed, the game is lost. The mines are placed randomly.
If a revealed cell doesn't have a mine, a number appears in it, indicating how many "mined" cells are adjacent to the revealed cell. You can use these numbers to calculate the location of mines.
If the adjacent cells also do not contain mines, an "unmined" region is revealed up to cells that do have numbers.
Cells that you believe to contain mines can be flagged so you don't accidentally reveal them. The number of flags is equal to the number of mines on the game board.
If "unmined" cells are revealed, then the game is won.

Now let's start implementing the game:

To begin, create a MinesweeperGame class, which will implement the logic of the game. This class must inherit the Game class, which is part of CodeGym's cool "game engine".

This and other engine classes are located in the com.codegym.engine.cell package. To use them, the MinesweeperGame class must include the following import statement: import com.codegym.engine.cell.*;

If you did everything right, you will see the playing field when you start the application.

Requirements:

There must be a public MinesweeperGame class.
The MinesweeperGame class must inherit the Game class.
The MinesweeperGame class must have a statement that imports the entire contents of the com.codegym.engine.cell package.

No classes to display

To create a new class:

Go to the Class tree tab
Right-click on the folder where you want to create the class
In the menu that opens, select Create class
Enter the class name and click Create

That's what I tried to import, but still "does not like" the word engine.

Read the rules. You must create class called MinesweeperGame. Don't forget that public class name must be same as class file name

try

import com.codegym.engine.cell.*;

public class MinesweeperGame extends Game {
}

Hi Maciej, I've done what you've proposed. Program still not recognizing to the word enginr. I've included two screen shots below: one of the java code and the other of the CodeGym directory. Do you see anything wrong? Thanks, Art --------------------------------------------------------------------------- package com.codegym.games.minesweeper; import com.codegym.engine.cell.*; public class MinesweeperGame extends Game{ } -------------------------------------------------------------------- I tried using Snipping Tool to show you the directory, but I couldn't paste it here. Could the problem be in the directory?

Did you create class in directory Minesweeper? If not, that could the problem

It's in the Minesweeper directory. I wonder if I inadvertently deleted com.codegym.engine.cell.* Is there a way to re-install it if it is missing?

If you are talking about Intellij. Forget it. I don't know how to import in intellij. I am not professional. If on codegym. You can reset by button "New/Reset". Maybe need premium. I don't remember

Look at this.
