Visual C++/CLI "An unhandled exception of type 'System.StackOverflowException' occurred in"
- by JennyWong
Hi,
I have a game I am making, it is giving me this message...
"An unhandled exception of type 'System.StackOverflowException' occurred in game.exe"
To explain...I have a 2D array with 9 different opening moves and I am getting a random number to use as the array reference to retrieve the details needed for a move...
you may get the same move again - but that's illegal.
the move may be illegal for other reasons too
So to try and fix this, I am calling the function again from within the function.
The error occurs very randomly
Is this bad practise to call a function from within itself?
What would be a better way to randomly row from a 2D array, AND if it isn't accept to get another one....
Or better still, how can I retrieve a random LEGAL move?
