Life Simulator in C++

lifesim's Issues

Deal with balance

Create random distribution for each parent's age and balance

Make constants

Replace pretty much every number except 0, 1, -1 and 2 a constexpr to facilitate updates

Future issue : aging 2 years at once, relationType override

Future issue : when you befriend (or start any form of relationship with) a classmate (or teacher or any person from your occupation), a Friend object will need to be created for the same person, doubling data. Otherwise (and I don't know how an otherwise is possible yet), relationType will be overriden to lsim::RELATIONFRIEND or whatever it is and the new friend will be added to the main character's relationships vector. In this situation, the friend would age 2 years in a single lsim::mainCharacter::ageAYear call : once via the relationships vector, and once via the occupation, along with many other problems, I'm sure.

Add documentation

Maybe use Doxygen. Or not, I don't know yet

Improve generateStats

Current stat generating algorithm's distribution is as follows:

Remove the gap in the middle, focus more of the distribution around 65~70

School type is default

The school's menu says DEFAULTOCCUPATION (type 0) even though ctor was called with type 2

lsim::School::goToMenu() isn't called

Instead, parent class Occupation's goToMenu is called. goToMenu is already virtual.

Memory management

Objects created inside a vector (ex. Occupation objects in lsim::mainCharacter.occupations) stay in memory until termination of the program, even after erasing them from the vector. Should allocate these objects to the heap and call delete when done with them.

Error code 305 on getTXT call

When executing the binary from the os file explorer, getTXT cannot find the txts because the given paths are relative to the root of the lifesim folder, so it searches for ./data/txts/whatever.txt and it resolves to lifesim/bin/data/txts/whatever.txt Temp fix : just cd wherever/lifesim or move the executable to the root of the project folder.
