Gonna build my own engine too

yeaa.... goood luck...

Sounds like a lot of work. Why not take an existent one first? There's lots of good engines.

those assertions can be important though

So I was just asking should I use VS Code or Visual studio for that..? I'm the only one who will work on the project.

There's stdint.h (why would you still care about ancient compilers?), and for CRT differences — just don't mix VS and MinGW stuff

Well I want to be comfortable around that engine. I want everything my way you know... I don't want any extra stuff

enjoy navmeshes, steering and dynamic obstacle avoidance

that's the most basic stuff that you're listing though Max

I'm actually seriously considering writing my own engine for a game, currently making a wrapper over graphics APIs like Direct3D 12 and Metal

Please guys help me

I'm not that of a advanced programmer. I guess I don't have anyone to mentor me and show me the right way to learn everything 😭

JUST FUCKING USE IRRLICHT LIKE AMYBODY ELSE

.

Just show me the right path. I really wanna be like you guys

If short: stack is used for local variables (that don't go to processor registers directly), heap is for dynamic memory (that you allocate using new). Stack has limited size, heap afaik limited only by your RAM size. If in details, then there're lots of articles in Google https://www.gribblelab.org/CBootCamp/7_Memory_Stack_vs_Heap.html

Difference, that one is created on stack and another in the heap. (Which will be correct: "in the heap" or "on the heap"?)

Well, there are lots of paths. If you just want to make a game and don't care about anything else I would suggest to take one of some popular engines. People usually learn Unity and go with it and they're happy (the developers of Unity do pretty good work and promise make it more suitable for big projects in future). But it's C#. Some C++ developers like UE4, because it's simple and gives lots of tools out of the box. If you want to learn programming in game development there's no easy path, you need to learn most of things that was mentioned above :) I have colleagues that started from making their own engine (actually most of them did), some started with Unity or UE (I'm from this group), some worked years in other spheres (backend, enterprise soft, etc.) before joining gamedev. So I can't say some way better than another. If I ask some of this persons they would probably suggest doing that they did (but they did different things 😃)

on the heap

M I getting this because of this

Is it possible to take input from user of type string with undefined size of array

Is it possible to take input from user of type string with undefined size of array

Reserve/resize

why not std::string directly

Is it possible to take input from user of type string with undefined size of array

In C++ we have this thing called "stream"

and use stdin as the fd

i don't understand this can u elaborate this
