´´´cs public static string DoMove(int Index, Pokémon target,Pokémon user) { Move move = user.Moves[Index]; if (move is DamageMove ) { return ((DamageMove)move).DoDamage(user, target); } else if( move is HealingMove) { return ((HealingMove)move).DoHeal(user); }
return ""; ´´´ the functions i want to use in here are DoDamage and DoHeal

Since the methods are static... ClassName.MethodName() If they aren't, then you need an instance

Eren•5mo ago

thats how i call them ?

Angius•5mo ago

No, you call both DoDamage() and DoHeal() on an instance of Move

Eren•5mo ago

these functions are not static

Angius•5mo ago

Are they both methods of the Move class?

Eren•5mo ago

so i will need a instance

Angius•5mo ago

Yeah And you have one, so everything looks fine What's the issue, then?

i also need to be able to make this code - each time when this gets used how do i do that --PowerPoints?

(as a side note, you can have a cast automatically with an is operator, so your current code:)

            if (move is DamageMove )
            {
                return ((DamageMove)move).DoDamage(user, target);
            }

            if (move is DamageMove )
            {
                return ((DamageMove)move).DoDamage(user, target);
            }

(can just be this:)

            if (move is DamageMove dm )
            {
                return dm.DoDamage(user, target);
            }

            if (move is DamageMove dm )
            {
                return dm.DoDamage(user, target);
            }

What do you mean "make this code each time when it gets used"? Make what code? And what do you mean by "make", "run"?

Eren•5mo ago

i mean make it minus each time off of the powerpoints do i put in the the if and in the else if the statment --powerpoints?

Angius•5mo ago

Sure, try it

Eren•5mo ago

already did but because of the return statement it goes undetectable also if u need more context i can show u what i need to make if that helps u if u dont need it its fine just incase Short description A Pokémon can do both a damage move and a healing move. Implementation • Implement a function based on an index of a move and a Pokémon's information of the execution in text • First select the move that corresponds to the given index from the moves of the Pokémon • Do the DoDamage execution or DoHeal execution respectively, if the move is a damage or healingmove is • Then enter the number of times the move can be performed (PowerPoints) with a to downstairs • Also return the text of the move execution in both cases
