I seem to remember there being no classes or user-defined structures in verge. This is a bit of a problem. I see two alternatives.

1) I can somehow finagle my way into getting some sort of pseudo-structure running (or maybe add some code within my system.vc verge that can do it)

2) Write a function that can extract information like a class.

Or, maybe I'm wrong and there IS structure declaration. In any case, perhaps some of you could share with me what you would do in this situation. (I want a class for player characters that contains their statistics, equipment and so on.)

Lets give an example here.

for example say the weapon a character has
can be represented by a number between 0 and 255 (8 bits or 1 byte)
and then another for armour.
another for boots, ring etc
then stats are between 255 (of which we will say their are 4 of those)
so 8 1 byte variables.
8 bytes!
heres how you do it
int somefunction()
{
...
int main_hero=malloc(8)
byte[main_hero+0]=1; // Sword
byte[main_hero+1]=29; // shield
byte[main_hero+2]=45; // Boots of dirt
byte[main_hero+3]=0; // No Ring
byte[main_hero+4]=25; // Strength 25
byte[main_hero+5]=20; // Defence 20
byte[main_hero+6]=10; // Magic 10
byte[main_hero+7]=1; // Charisma 1
...
}

Now you can just pass main_hero to functions that
need to work on his parameters.

You could probably pretty this up with some functions that read and write statistics. And use some #defines to make it even cooler
byte[main_hero+4]=25; // Strength 25
could be
#define str 4
byte[main_hero+str]=25; // Strength 25

of normal arrays anyway. But for some reason we still want them. Hmm...

Sorry, yeah, I mean dimensional arrays. I myself will use parallel arrays. Fun.
