This `val healthBonus` inside the init block doesn't make much sense, does it?

You could indeed declare it outside of the `init` block, right under the `health` declaration. Note that declarations and init blocks are executed in order.

I would think that declaring it within the `init` block makes it a variable scoped to the block, so it wouldn't even be a property

yes it's not a property, that's why I'm confused

maybe I just misunderstand the example tho
