Just finished making my version of the TripleX game. Had a lot of fun learning and was very easy to understand.
void PrintIntroduction(int Difficulty)
{
// Prints out the intro message
std::cout << std::endl;
std::cout << “Welcome Detective Jackie, the entire building complex is under my control.\n”;
std::cout << “If you wanna catch me you better clear each floor without me knowing.\n”;
std::cout << “Cause’ if I catch you in the terminal, it will be all over for you Detective.\n”;
std::cout << std::endl;
std::cout << "Current floor security level " << Difficulty;
std::cout << std::endl;
}
// Declares the variables
const int CodeA = rand() % Difficulty + Difficulty;
const int CodeB = rand() % Difficulty + Difficulty;
const int CodeC = rand() % Difficulty + Difficulty;
const int CodeSum = CodeA + CodeB + CodeC;
const int CodeMultiply = CodeA * CodeB * CodeC;
// Prints out values of "CodeSum" and "CodeMultiply"
std::cout << std::endl;
// std::cout << CodeA << CodeB << CodeC << std::endl; // Only to see the randomized values
std::cout << "\n* There are three numbers in the code";
std::cout << "\n* The codes add-up to: " << CodeSum;
std::cout << "\n* The codes multiply to: " << CodeMultiply <<std::endl;
// Store player guess values
int GuessA, GuessB, GuessC;
std::cout << std::endl;
std::cin >> GuessA >> GuessB >> GuessC;
int GuessSum = GuessA + GuessB + GuessC;
int GuessMultiply = GuessA * GuessB * GuessC;
// Print out win or lose statement
if(CodeSum == GuessSum && CodeMultiply == GuessMultiply)
{
std::cout << "\n*** Override code accepted, current building level unsealed, rebooting local security system. ***\n";
return true;
}
else
{
std::cout << "\n*** I found you detective, should have guessed better, releasing the neuro toxins ***\n";
return false;
}
}
int main()
{
srand(time(NULL));
int LevelDiffuculty = 1;
int const MaxLevel = 7;
while (LevelDiffuculty <= MaxLevel) //Loop game until all levels are completed
{
bool bLevelComplete = PlayGame(LevelDiffuculty);
std::cin.clear();
std::cin.ignore();
if (bLevelComplete)

++LevelDiffuculty;

Hope nobody takes this out of context but here is my TripleX quarantine game…

This post is in response to the Unreal Engine C++ Developer course.
Lesson 21: Statements & Comments:
I’m assuming that the Preprocessor Directive which calls on the library is what allows is to
use functions and/or statements which that library posseses?
The main function is what gets called by the program and then all actions within its body are executed when called?
The Expression Statements are statements which result in an effect being returned to the user interface and is visible to the user; in the case of this lesson the interface is the console.
The Declaration Statements are statements which perform some function within the program that is stored, but not returned in any way?
The return statement ends the program if the program returns 0.
Hello, I am new to the course and already having trouble. I believe something went wrong during the download and install process. The Developer command prompt will still open code, but I can not compile or run any of my program that I have started working on. I am thinking the set up is going to have to be rather complex since it was not set up for me during the download and install process, but let me show you want I am getting
I’m on step 105 of the C++ Developer course with Building Escape. This video deals with trigger volumes. As you can see by the screenshot, I’ve included the correct “Engine/TriggerVolume.h” file. However, when I go to type in ATriggerVolume, it’s coming up as some random integer rather than a class. As a result, I’m unable to use this correctly in the next video. Any ideas as to what’s going on?
I’m not sure what was wrong. I tried to compile and it worked. The doors open with the pawn walking into the trigger volume. However, what I find odd is the ATriggerVolume still appears as a variable rather than a class. Very confused. But, I guess it’s working and that’s all that matters lol!
hi so i am doing what the classes says exactly but when compiling what is the extra stuff i see thats highlighted yello? it makes me think i am doing something wrong because its not in the video.
Not sure if I’m in the right spot, but I think main() is a method for the game, meaning it will contain the command which will execute a certain part of the game when the method is called upon. Starting my C++ journey, wish me luck!
After my direct PC shutdown (during compiling) I’ve lost all the codes (even tho I was saving files per 10min using ctrl +S ) , When I recoded everything my codes compiled successfully but Unreal Game engine 4.25 is’nt reacting to those codes ! and showing nothing but a blank bood with dollo sign in it !
Please help I needed to reslove this problem for taking futher classes of the course.
Please start a new thread, since it’s unrelated to this one.
And when you do, please share what you’re typing in, this looks like only half of the output.
