Misreading? - Hit Points Challenge

So I am not confused about what this question is asking, I am more confused about how to write the logic because of how I am reading this question and the initial code setup. The confusing portion of the question is:

Our move function takes this three-part tuple player and a direction tuple that's two parts, the x to move and the y (like (-1, 0) would move to the left but not up or down)

move function should have player and direction parameters? If so, the initial code snippet is missing that. If not, then I am confused about how I both figure out players direction they are trying to move and where they are currently at off the same x, y value.

That or the answer went right over the top of my head because I read way too far into it. haha.

def move(player):
    x, y, hp = player

    return x, y, hp
