The following code works correctly, the questions is simply -> is there a better way of doing this? I have tried a 'for' loop but it tells me that it can't initialise 'job'.

heading job[12]=
{
heading(500.0f, 150.0f, game_stats[0], 1.0f, 0.4f),
heading(500.0f, 170.0f, game_stats[1], 1.0f, 0.4f),
heading(500.0f, 190.0f, game_stats[2], 1.0f, 0.4f),
heading(500.0f, 210.0f, game_stats[3], 1.0f, 0.4f),
heading(500.0f, 230.0f, game_stats[4], 1.0f, 0.4f),
heading(500.0f, 250.0f, game_stats[5], 1.0f, 0.4f),
heading(500.0f, 270.0f, game_stats[6], 1.0f, 0.4f),
heading(500.0f, 290.0f, game_stats[7], 1.0f, 0.4f),
heading(500.0f, 310.0f, game_stats[8], 1.0f, 0.4f),
heading(500.0f, 330.0f, game_stats[9], 1.0f, 0.4f),
heading(500.0f, 350.0f, game_stats[10], 1.0f, 0.4f),
heading(500.0f, 370.0f, game_stats[11], 1.0f, 0.4f)
};

Although that seems like more work to type, I think that it would be better performance-wise than using a loop to assign the values. Correct me if I am wrong.

A correctly written FOR loop can be more efficient than what you have.

You need to create the job[] array first and then use a for loop to initiliaze it's values. Not create the job[] array and initialize it at the same time, instead use the for loop to assign the values of the array after it's been created. Within the scope of the FOR loop create variables to hold the fxn argument values this way you can inherit and increment the settings without entering in specific data.
