Here is the planet class and constructor which randomly determines the planets status:
Code:
class Planet {
public:
Planet();
enum { Ally, Governemnt, Neutral } Status; //USED TO DETERMINE THE PLANETS STATUS IN THE GAME
private:
};
Planet::Planet() {
int RandomStatus = rand()%3; //RANDOMLY SETS THE STATUS OF THE PLANET
switch(RandomStatus) {
case 0:
Status = Ally;
break;
case 1:
Status = Governemnt;
break;
case 2:
Status = Neutral;
break;
default:
Status = Neutral;
}
}
Here i have an instance of the planet class
Code:
Planet *Planet1 = new Planet;
and lastly I have a thing that tests the planet's status to make sure it works:
Code:
char *AllyStatus = "The Planet is sided with the player";
char *GovtStatus = "The planet is sided with the goverment";
char *Neutral = "The planet is neutral";
while(!done) // Loop That Runs While done=FALSE
{
switch(Planet1->Status) {
case Ally:
TextOut(hDc, 0, 0, AllyStatus, sizeof(AllyStatus));
break;
case Government:
TextOut(hDc, 0, 0, GovernmentStatus, sizeof(GovernmentStatus));
break;
case Neutral:
TextOut(hDc, 0, 0, Neutral, sizeof(Neutral));
break;
default:
break;
}
...

For some reason I get these errors:
