This is an excercise for students of the 1st year of GD of DAE. This excercise focuses on:
new&delete/ memory management- Inheritance and polymorphism
- Templates
You may assume that if you receive a projectile pointer that you become owner of said memory. Add functionality:
- Making projectiles (push back methods)
- Deleting projectiles (when projectilemanager is destroyed)
- Drawing projectiles
- Updating projectiles (and deleting them when the 'HasHit' function returns true)
We have LockOnProjectile and SkillshotProjectile. Rework the project so that both have a common baseclass making so that the projectile manager is simplified.
Hopefully, you will only need one container holding all projectiles in the game.
Make it inherit from an interface class (no data only pure virtual functions) called IClone.
This interace must be CRTP (Curiously Repeating Template Pattern, google for more info).
Implement Ashe's W from league of legends for the Hoover Champion. Your new ability is not designed to be inherited.
You should inherit from Ability.
Make a templated container similar to std::vector that remembers how long an element is in the container.
When the container is full, instead of expanding it overwrites the oldest element and gives that oldest element back to the user that called a function to add an element.
When overriding operator[] it will not return the oldest element but will delete it if it is a pointer AND if a boolean in the container is set (this can be set by the user). Otherwise it will discard it.
Demonstrate that this container works.
TIP: Make this container without templates first and add the template component as last. Feel free to use a seperate project (console application for example) for this if you prefer so.
