[Solved] Why can’t you access parts of a class in C# like you could a struct in C++? [closed]

by


In C# fields of a class are private by default

class Node
{
    public int snakeHead ;   // points to another node where the player goes down to 
    public int ladderFoot;  // points to another node where to player goes up to
}

Just making your fields public should fix your issue.
EDIT: using best practices you would keep fields private, but create properties and use them to deal with your data. Also naming private with an underscore is a common practice:

class Node
{
    private int _snakeHead ;   // points to another node where the player goes down to 
    public int SnakeHead
    {
        get {return _snakeHead;}
        set {_snakeHead = value;}
    }

    private int _ladderFoot;  // points to another node where to player goes up to
    public int LadderFoot
    {
        get {return _ladderFoot;}
        set {_ladderFoot = value;}
    }
}
