Else statement crashes when i enter a letter for a cin << int value
- by TimothyTech
Alright, i have a question, i veered away from using strings for selection so now i use an integer.when the user enters a number then the game progresses. if they enter a wrong character it SHOULD give the else statement, however if i enter a letter or character the system goes into an endless loop effect then crashes. is there a way to give the else statement even if the user defies the variable's type.
// action variable;
int c_action:
if (c_action == 1){
// enemy attack and user attack with added effect buffer.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////
u_attack = userAttack(userAtk, weapons);
enemyHP = enemyHP - u_attack;
cout << " charging at the enemy you do " << u_attack << "damage" << endl;
e_attack = enemyAttack(enemyAtk);
userHP = userHP - e_attack;
cout << "however he lashes back causing you to have " << userHP << "health left " << endl << endl << endl << endl;
//end of ATTACK ACTION
}else{
cout << "invalid actions" << endl;
goto ACTIONS;
}
