I was wondering if anyone else who has created games in C++
could help me with something. blink.gif

Me and a cohort, that I was introduced to on this site, are creating
an in the console text strategy game with what we would like to
have 12 continents that you can fight to take over, like in risk
almost. Now, I was wondering what would be a good way to
set up the continents in the code. w00t.gif

They need certain things like a way to set up the diplomacy of each
continent in comparison to the players, etc. crazy.gif

But, as I said before I am just curious about what someone who has
done this before would recommend on setting up the continents. biggrin.gif

Thanks in advance.

Maybe you can declare a Continent class that describes a single continent.

perhaps something like this:

cpp


class Province {
     string name;
     float size;
     //etc
};

class Continent {
     string name;
     float size;
     float DiplomacyRating;
     Province provinces[100];
};
Continent continent1, continent2, continent3;
