#include "RPGStats.h"

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    cout << "Hello world!" << endl;
    charcreat();
    return 0;
}

cout << "The first heroes class: ";
cin >> hero1;

if (hero1 = 1)
{
cout << "********************************************************************************\n" <<endl;
cout << "The Warrior, an expert but not master in all melee weapons, this class gets a\nbonus to of +5 strength, +5 to all weapon skills, and can wield up to an armor\nclass of 4(plate armor) naturally." << endl;

cout << "Is this the class you want? (y/n)" << endl;
cin >> optionsetup;
    if (optionsetup == setupy)
    {
    hero1 = class1;
    //place class bonus here
    }

    }
    while(optionsetup != setupn && optionsetup != setupy){cout << "Invalid, command, please try again."<< endl; goto h1setuprestart;}
}

system ("pause");
return 0;
}


I get the error of "New declaration 'int charcreat()' in charcreate

and the error 'ambiguates old deceleration 'void charcreate()'in charcreator header file

#ifndef RPGCHARCREATOR_H
#define RPGCHARCREATOR_H

void charcreat();

#endif


And the header file where I'll keep hero and enemy stats

I don't know what I'm doing wrong and would like some advice, this is my first time doing a long term large project. :P

New declaration 'int charcreat()' in charcreate
ambiguates old deceleration 'void charcreate()

In your header file: void charcreat();
In implementation file: int charcreat()
So, is it void or int?
D3ATH94 (10)
I changed int charcreat() to void charcreat(), but now I get the message

error: return-statement with a value, in function returning 'void' [-fpermissive]|
MiiNiPaa (8886)
Ok, let me guess. Now your charcreat function is defined as not returning anything (void), but you have return <something> inside?
