hello
how o di add entity names in runtime

lets say:

i want this function:

function add_ent("obj1");

Entity* R= "obj1";

obj1.x=20; ...

how i can make that possible?
Giving a name and using the function to add that name to the entity.. so i can control it, by that name..
and not by giving a pre defined name.

i think thats not possible, because to control an entity, you need its pointer.

How about controlling the Entity by using his Entity* definition? You can define a name. f.e. Entity* Peter or Entity* Ghünter.

ghünter could not work

You can store the names in entity.string1 or string2. If you want to find an entity by its name, you can go through the linked list and check if it's string1/2 is the name you are searching for.

Instead of using string1 or string2 you can also create strings and store their pointers in entity skills. But don't forget to destroy them when you remove the entity.

You are right

or use a map.
