[2005] String

Let me explain what I say
I am making a game
there are 2 characters.
And I make a class called character
dim char1 as new character
dim char2 as new character
And I make a function

Function result(i as integer) as integer
char1.sth.....
char2.sth

But I don't want to write each line of code twice....
And I write that char & i ,but it can't work
what should I do?

abc.ab & i = "...."

What's wrong?
Thx

How about trying to explain what you are trying to do?

Using arrays would be helpful in your case.

Public Shared char1 As New sprite("char1")

spirte is a class

And I cant use array in this case

You have still not explained what you are trying to do?

And why can't you use Arrays?

You cannot access Properties/Methods/events of a class using enumeration. You have to access them by name.

Myclass.Property1 = x
Myclass.Property2 = x

When you declare a new class object:

Public _myclass as New Myclass

you then use this to access the properties:

_myclass.Property1 = x
_myclass.Property2 = x

If you have defaults for class properties that you want to set with ANY new instantiation (spelling??) of that class then you set it up like this (in the class itself):

Code:

---

Public Sub New()
Property1 = x
Property2 = x
End Sub

---

You can also set New to accept arguements and overload itself:

Code:

---

Public Sub New(ByVal String1 as String, ByVal Int1 as Integer)

Property1 = String1
Property2 = Int1

End Sub

If you already know all of this, then I apologize but I saw what you posted and thought this information may be of some use. :wave:

I do not believe there is any way around this with individual variables.

The only thing I can come up with is to create an array of characters and use a for loop to access each one in the array and set the property once:

Code:

---

For i as integer = 0 to array.length-1
  array(i).PropertyName = FunctionName(Byval ParameterName as Type)
Next

---

Did that on the fly so it will probably need tweaking, but am hoping that it gives you a general idea....

Good Luck!! :wave:

If you dont want to write each line over and over again, you would need a loop. And what does a loop need? Something to loop through; an array or a collection. You would need to create one of those and populate it with your instances of the character class.
