Code skipping - function problem?

lukecplusplus (15)
I'm trying to write a rabbit cancer sim and I am having an issue: my program stops at "starting simulation" on line 88. I looked up all of my syntax and I see no errors. I want the program's main loop to function after my switch statement. Should I move my switch to another function to fix this? I'm using dev-c++ if that's relevant.

The problem may not be syntax but maybe a logic based problem. One thing you could do is go in order of your program and check what how it goes.

Look closer at line 51 and 52

thank you so much! I need to get better at examining my flow and to stop adding little pieces of code to test things lol.
