Here is some code:
void main()
{
GameEngine ge("phil", "anotherguy");
string response;
do {
ge.playGame();
cout << endl << "Do you want to (r)eplay the same battle, (s)tart a new battle, or (q)uit? ";
cin >> response;
} while(response == "r" || response == "R" || response == "s" || response == "S" );
}
GameEngine::GameEngine(string name1, string name2)
{
p1Name = name1;
p2Name = name2;
}
void GameEngine::playGame()
{
cout << "PLAY GAME" << endl;
Army p1, p2;
Battlefield testField;
RuleSet rs;
int xSize = 13; // Number of rows
int ySize = 13; // Number of columns
loadData(p1, p2, testField, rs, xSize, ySize);
...
}
void GameEngine::loadData(Army& p1, Army& p2, Battlefield& testField, RuleSet& rs, int& xSize, int& ySize)
{
string terrain = BattlefieldUtils::pickTerrain();
string armySplit[14];//id index 1
string ruleSplit[19];//in index 7
string armyP1, armyP2, ruleSet;
Skill p1Skills[8];
Skill p2Skills[8];
CreatureStack p1Stacks[20];
CreatureStack p2Stacks[20];
...
}
CreatureStack(){quantity = 0; isLive = false; id = -1;};
Army(){};
Battlefield(){};
RuleSet(){};
I have posted every line of code that executes until the program crashes. This code ran fine for a long time, I added some stuff that does not even execute until way after the code I have posted here, and bam stack overflow that occurs at GameEngine::loadData() line: CreatureStack p2Stacks[20]; will not go away. What am I doing wrong here? Is that all the stack can handle? I increased the stack size in Visual Studio and got the error to go away, but that slowed things down considerably, so I would rather just get to the source of the issue and fix that.
