Guided: Build a Text-Based Adventure Game in Rust

let player; 
	
if selected_class is warrior(value of 1)
	set player to spawn_warrior()
	print warrior class selection

else if selected class is wizard(value of 2)
	set player to spawn_wizard()
	print wizard class selection
else
	set player to spawn_ranger()
	print ranger class selection

player.expect("No player class was selected.")

Use the Option enum in Rust with Some() when assigning the player variable. This is done using player = Some(input) which extracts the value of input and assigns it to the player if it exists, or None if it doesn't.

The functions to spawn a class are defined for you at the top of the Player module. Functions of a module can be called in Rust with the syntax Module::function(). For example, Player::spawn_warrior().

let mut enough_xp = true;
	
while enough_xp is true
	define req_exp for level up
	
	if self.exp >= req_exp
		increment self.level
		subract req_exp from self.exp
	
		increase player stat values based off self.class
		print level up message
	else
		set enough_xp to false
	

When increasing stat values, use a match statement. match works similar to switch statements from other languages . The default case of the match statement should be to do nothing in the format

_  => {}

if self.rests >= 1
	calculate half_hp(self.max_health/2)
	if self.current_health <= half_hp, self.current_health += half_hp
	else self.current_health = self.max_health
	decrement self.rests by 1
	
	print current health
	print remaining rests
else
 print no more rests message
	

You can use a ternary statement when setting self.current_health.

let mut base_dmg = rng.gen_range(self.min_damage to self.max_damage)
let total_damage
	
check if attack is a critical hit, if it is then double base_dmg

check if dmg_ismagic
	if it is, set total_damage to base_damage - mob.resistance or 1 if the value is less than 1

if dmg_ismagic is false
	set total_damage to base_damage - mob.armor or 1 if the value is less than 1

subtract total_damage from mob.current_health

if attack is critical hit, print critical hit message. Else print normal damage message.

To calculate if an attack is a critical hit, use rng.gen_range() to generate a value between 1 and 100, inclusive. If this value is less than or equal to self.crit_chance, then the attack is a critical.

check if player dodge rolled successfully

if player didnt dodge
	calculate base damage similar to the previous task
	let mut total_damage = 1 #Minimum damage a mob does to a player is 1
	
	if self.dmg_ismagic
		calculate total damage as base damage - player.resistance or 1
	else
		calculate total damage as base damage - player.armor or 1
	
	subtract total damage from player.health
	
	print damage done to player

else
	print dodge message #no damage should have been done to player

Since total_damage should be initialized as one, it should only be changed if the calculated damage done to the player is >= 1.

Since the functions to spawn the mobs are in the separate Mob module, you will need to spawn them with the Module::function() syntax. Since room_mobs is just a vector, you can simply push() the spawned mob into room_mobs.

print statements

add curr_mob.exp to player.exp
call player.level_up() #use player parameter, not Player module
increment mob_index #Dereference pointer
set self to GameState::AwaitingInput #Dereference pointer

When working with variables that are references, you need to dereference them to directly modify the value they point to. This is done by prefixing a * to the variable name such as *example -=5

increment room_number #Derefence pointer
increment player.rests #No need to dereference
set mob_index to 0 #Dereference pointer
set self to GameState::AwaitingInput #Dereference pointer
