Thread: Nested structures

Alright I was wondering how do you use nested structures...

Code:

//This is the struct for our CHARACTER abilities and what not
struct CHARACTER
{
	COORD pos;  //Coordinates of the position of our CHARACTER
 
	unsigned char dispChar; // The ASCII representation of the CHARACTER
	unsigned char color; // The color (background and foreground) of the CHARACTER

	int current_water;   //This is a representation of how much water is contained
	int water_need;   //this tells us how much is needed
	//when current_water reaches with in a few points of water_need then the thirsty will 
	//be defined as 'true'

	bool thristy; //This defines the switch over from want to need

	struct MEMORY
	{
		int size_of_memory;

		COORD water_local;

	};

};

How would I define anything within the memory struct? And how would I use it in a vector?

ie
CHARACTER Adam;
CHARACTER MEMORY mAdam;
Adam.mAdam.water_local....?

I just dont know how to do it...
Because I would like to access the variables in the memory struct with the character struct, but also I would like to occassionally just access the Memory struct.

Should I maybe just try something else?
