Level design basics, part 10

Example level design
Gladiator arena. There are 2 secrets in the level. The combat area
4 meter radius circle, or 16 square meters. Secrets are triggered when
killing target number of opponents 3 times in a row. The opponents

are animal beasts, monsters and other gladiators. The high score in
the single player game affects the campaign goals. 

gladiator.bat
2 secrets
set circle(4)
trigger target

Arena is actually very large in this level, even though it might not sound
that way. Experience is hard to get in this level. Experience points, more
specifically.

Exercise
Make a level script file set.

Graphics
That's probably the role of graphics designer, but making 3 dimensional
game design objects is a part of level design as well for better imagining
when writing hard source code.

class LevelObject
{
    std::string type[50]{};
public:
    int create();
};


Script code was mostly used by JavaScript and Java. And macrowave
flash. But it is still important as it is essential. It can be used many time
to sort the use of source code of any coding language. That's what is

used in unreal engine 5. Coding a level is actually harder than level design,
but they are both equally important and have to be related. It is important
to under stand imperative programming as it sorts level functions correctly.

class Level
{
    MainActor build[50]{};
};

object oriented programming

Object oriented programming is a sound and bold approach to c++ and internet wiring application and video games. It reduces a lot of code messes, made by global and half global functions. One of the more advanced object programming techniques are private access, poly morph and object message inheritance. It is set by c++ bjarne stroustrup and iso isometric standard convention comitee to use classes instead of structs and structures for making objects. Which means you most definitely should , but not must or have to. class Monster {     std::string memory_attributes{}; public:     void treck();     void track();     void trace(); }; The treck() function makes the monster roam and do human like jogging and trimming. track() means the monster goes ai path tracking and trace() means it tries to find other monsters in the area. class Weapon {     std::string memory_attributes{}; public:    void use(); }; void Weapon::use() {   ...

C++ and OOP in a different manner

Keep in mind this article is meant strictly for C++ game devs and not for application programmers or game devs of scripting/other languages. I have my own technique when it comes to OOP in C++. The game I'm deving right now(or we are making) is a simple windows console project. It's up to you to decide whether you'll use this technique. First let me tell you in which cases you might need this technique: if you're ready for a new look on OOP if you need a new toolset for your coding practice if you like to learn(which I clearly hope for) So, the technique then. Decide which you prefer more: classes or structures. This helps you understand what kind of objects you want in a game.
