I suggest placing your enemies into a std::vector<\/code> or std::queue<\/code>. Each enemy should have it’s own coordinates (for easy placement). <\/p>\n

In your update or refresh loop, iterator over the enemy list, processing them as necessary. <\/p>\n

In another timing loop or thread, you can add enemies to the container. This should not affect the code of the rest of the program; except that there may be more data (enemies) in the vector to process.<\/p>\n

Example: <\/p>\n

class Enemy_Base\n{\n  public:  \n    virtual void draw(\/* drawing surface *\/);\n};\n\nclass Troll : public Enemy\n{\n  \/\/...\n};\n\nstd::vector<Enemy_Base *> enemy_container;\n\n\/\/...\nstd::vector<Enemy_Base *>::iterator enemy_iter;\n\n\/\/ Rendering loop\nfor (enemy_iter = enemy_container.begin();\n     enemy_iter != enemy_container.end();\n     ++enemy_iter)\n{\n  (*enemy_iter)->draw(\/*..*\/);\n}\n\n\/\/ Create a new enemy\nTroll * p_troll = new Troll;\nenemy_container.push_back(p_troll);\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
This example is to demonstrate concepts.  The real implementation should use smart pointers, and factory design pattern.  <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
