C2761 error: Member function redeclaration not allowed

Unreal Courses Talk

#1

Hi, revisiting this course after a year’s break and noted I had the following error:

Error C2761 ‘bool FBullCowGame::IsGameWon(void) const’: member function redeclaration not allowed.

Have tried a few things and looked online but am drawing blanks. I have pasted the two files which use the const below. Any help / ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike
