So far in this Connect 4 Game Challenge I have not solved anything on my own and am always using the solution videos to move forward. I would not be able to explain what is happening so far in this game. Can anyone recommend outside resources for understanding OOJS? Or should I go back to Unit 3?

OO in general takes some time to get your head around, and I'm still not always sure way my code, or imported code works haha. But I would recommend to watch some 'Good' youtube videos about OO programming in general and for JS, this can help to put the code in perspective and they might give examples that works better for you.
When i did the challenge, I also had to look at the solutions a lot, so no shame in that, the more important thing is that you see that you have a gap and are willing to fill it, unlike a lot of other people who just progress for the sake of progression. I went back and looked over the code, and looked at all the links between each functions etc and how it all nested back into one working piece, it took time but worth it!
I would recommend going back, look at the code, see where each part leads to and how it all works together combined with some more videos talking about OOJS :D
