: But what about declaring pointers to a heap so you can make your own '&story' for example
Well, in DinkC, variables are not reference parameters like in C++. Every variable in DinkC should have an ampersand (&
. You can't do something simple like this:
void change(float &x, float &y)
{ float w = x;
x = y;
y = w;
}
That's C++, but int DinkC every variable, global or local, should have an &. To create a local variable in a script, you can do:
int &_a;
Local variables can only be used in that script, globals can be used anywhere. To create a global variable, we usually create them in main.c:
make_global_int("&story", 0);
DinkC is a simple language and many things common in C++ can't be done in DinkC. Also, you can't include other files like .h files, DinkC scriptfiles are .c and they can be compiled to .d but that's not necessary.
