Creating a new object and setting the value via the constructor.

The LandingActivity interacts with the Spaceship model object we created. Start by setting mSpaceship to a new Spaceship object in the onCreate() method. Use the custom constructor that takes a String parameter, and pass in "FIREFLY" as the parameter.

I am not sure if this is me or the way the question is written, but I am missing something. The question for this challenge states the following.

The LandingActivity interacts with the Spaceship model object we created. Start by setting mSpaceship to a new Spaceship object in the onCreate() method. Use the custom constructor that takes a String parameter, and pass in "FIREFLY" as the parameter.

So the first part I thought would be very straight forward. We have the member variable mSpaceship already defined in the code, so I put the following in the OnCreate method.

mSpaceship = new Spaceship();

However, doing this results in an error stating "Make sure you set the type for mSpaceship.

So I changed it to this.

Spaceship mSpaceship = new Spaceship();

Then I get an error that says, "Looks like you aren't setting mSpaceship in the onCreate() method, which is really interesting since I didn't move my code, I just added to it.

I realize the second part of this has not been done yet, and that is a bit confusing to me as well.

The instructions say, "Use the custom constructor that takes a String parameter, and pass in "FIREFLY" as the parameter."

The way that's worded, it sounds like the constructor should be there, but clearly it is not. I attempted to add a new constructor but the error I am receiving didn't change.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

        // Add your code here!
      Spaceship mSpaceship = new Spaceship();
    }
}

    public String getType() {

    public void setType(String type) {
      mType = type;
    }

    public int getNumPassengers() {
      return mNumPassengers;
    }

    public void setNumPassengers(int numPassengers) {
      mNumPassengers = numPassengers;
    }

    public Spaceship() {
      mType = "SHUTTLE";
    }

    public Spaceship(String type) {
      mType = type;
    }
}
