C/C++ :: Make Basic Snake Game Using Command Window And Screen Refreshes?
Apr 15, 2015I am trying to make a basic Snake game using the command window and screen refreshes. So far I have a board, snake, food, and no walls. Basically I have it so the snake moves like the traditional snake in the game, when it eats the food once it grows. However when it eats the food a second time the game crashes. I think I have narrowed the issue down to the grow array that I have (below) but I am not sure if the issue could be a result of something else.
Grow Array
cord growArray (cord *p_values, int *size)
{
*size = *size + 1;
cord *p_new_values = new cord[ *size ];

C# :: Open WPF Window From Double Click On Selected Item In A List?
Apr 23, 2015I have a list with 2 items in it. When I double click on item 1, I want to open Window1.xaml, when I double click on item 2, I want to open Window2.xaml...
The code below works for popping up a message box, or window for that matter. But I really need to get the Window1 and Window2 based on the clicking of the correct selected item in the list.
Here is some code:

C/C++ :: Updating Window In Game Loop?
May 25, 2014So I am working on making a game. The first thing I did was make a window class. This correctly makes the window and displays it.
Now, I run my game loop and it just freezes the window and shows the Application has stopped working message box. I believe this is because the Window is not actually being updated.
My game loop however, looks like this.
bool run = true;
while(run) {
Window::Render();
if (Window::IsCloseRequested())

C++ :: How To Make A Window Always On Top
May 11, 2013I want to make a window tgat stays always on top like that of a cybercafe software. A window that cannot be closed, minimised, deactivated, etc... with wxWidgets.
So far I've tried making a frame window with the wxSTAY_ON_TOP flag. It works, but not to perfection because, when i press the windows button, the start menu interferes with the window(and taskbar too). Also, the task manager, how to deactivate it.
- a wjndow that strictly stays on top

Jun 6, 2014I am making an open world RPG game. I have already done the graphics rendering (with directx 11 on windows 8). I am a bit confused of how to load all of this data in, and I looked into how the game Skyrim did it. I didn't find much information about it at all, apart from it uses cells for each bit of the game, and if you character were to kick a pumpkin (for example) it would record the new location in the player's save file. The same goes for spells, perks, quests, etc.
My problem is, I'm not sure how to implement something similar in code!

C++ :: Game Editor - How To Make A Rectangle Selection Tool
Dec 20, 2014I'm working with a game editor program, where the player can create their own maps. Right know I'm working with collisions, and since it's unpredictable where the player place the objects like trees, houses and cars...etc have I an idea with making a rectangle selection tool. Where the player can drag a collision box around the object, so the sprite stops when it hits the box. The problem is that I dont know how to make a tool like that. so my question is how do I create a tool like that (see picture under for more information)?
btw I'm using the SDL framework
here is a picture that illustrate the tool I want to create: [URL] ....

C++ :: Tic Tac Toe Console Game - If Statement Does Not Make Correct Decision
Feb 18, 2015I recently wrote a "Tic Tac Toe" console game, and i seem to have a problem in my winning conditions, as when it checks if the player won (should have won) it doesn't take the appropriate action.
The winning conditions are in CoreLogic.cpp
here's the code, might not be the most pretty and clean code ever but it works for me.
there are more files i just didn't feel the need to include them all since the problem is only within CoreLogic.cpp and possibly in main.cpp
pos1-pos9 have been declared in the UserInterface.cpp and are being used to determine the correct decision to do within CoreLogic.cpp
Nothing happens when you win at this point it just exits the program.
C++ :: Text Game - How To Make Player Go Back To Previous Location
Mar 19, 2013I have started making a text adventure game.
if (Choice == 2) {
cout << "" << endl << "You follow the light to the end of the hallway, you find your self in a room" << endl
<< "with natural light coming from a hole in the ceiling." << endl << "" << endl << "You hear the door you just came through, slam behind you!" << endl << "" << endl
<< "There are three possible directions." << endl << "" << endl << "Do you:" << endl << "" << endl << "1) Go forward" << endl << "" << endl << "2) Go left" << endl
[Code] .....
Ignore the if (Choice == 2) at the beginning, that's linked to some previous code.
I want to make the player go back to the first bit of text but i'm not sure how to do this if they keep choosing to go back and forth from one location.
I first thought of doing it by just putting the text back in after they have chosen the option, but I can't do this infinite times.
C++ :: Game Design Practice For Accessing Container Of Game Objects
Dec 21, 2014I'm working on my first video game. So far I have a few classes in the game starting with the Game class which includes a list of GameObjects (another class). There are several classes that inherit from GameObjects used to implement things like bullets, explosions, various enemy types, etc.
The game essentially iterates through the list of GameObjects to update/render them. I would like to provide access to the Game's list of GameObjects inside another class (like the Bullet class) so I can put new objects on the list. For example, when a bullet hits, I want to add an explosion to the Game's GameObject list it can be updated/rendered.
How this should be setup? I was considering adding a pointer to the Game or GameObject list to the GameObject class (and methods to access it), but I was wondering if there is a better way to set this up?
