I am using node.js in VSCode. I know another programming language decently enough that I could find relevant code snippets and create the below code. However, my JavaScript knowledge is very limited. The below code crashes at line 52, but states "No debugger available, can not send 'variables'". The breakpoints are simply ignored. I initially had most code segments in separate files and would often get unknown errors for "ethers.Contract". This is very frustrating because I have scraped the blow code from 15h+ google searches and no pointers to why things are not working. While they seem to work for others, they don't seem to work for me. I would very much appreciate it if someone with more experience could point out any newbie mistakes I am making!
