Ludo game on c++

[lost110]

I have 1 week guys. I need your help. I am making a game called ludo using c++. These are game instructions. https://www.mastersofgames.com/rules/ludo-rules-instructions-guide.htm The respective piece will move anticlockwise in boxes. The game will initiate by any player E.g If we throw the dice on the board and 5 comes, the piece will move 5 boxes. I am not getting the logic to move the respective piece on its path.

is this a console or ui game?

note my code may have errors, I haven't done console c++ in a while, but you can see the basic idea :)

if its a console game to makea random number system just make a variable like:

int randomDiceNo = 1+rand()%5;
int position;

now do all the if statements so FOR EXAMPLE:

if(randomDiceNo == 2)
{

 position =+ 2;


cout<< "The player has now reached moved to" <<position; 
}

So you want our to give you what exactly? An entire code for a ludo game?

Nope! I know there will be use of arrays. Whatever comes on dice will be passed on a function. That function will decide the boxes it moves. But the problem is how will the piece move to upper boxes. The path is like a rectangle. Another problem that each player has 4 pieces. I am not getting the logic. 4 pieces! And its the choice of user to select the piece which are free to move to move along the boxes . So there will be use of switch case.

Where is your C++ source code?

Hard for us to offer advice when we can't see what you have done.

Final semester project in FAST CFD? :P Section C, I suppose.
Well, you won't ever get the whole code, will have to start the work on it yourself and then you could ask for help depending upon different problems you might face.
