The following line is calling the parent's virtual function instead of the derived class.
cout << player->getCmdList(0).onTrigger();
I have a feeling it's because the data type of the array is the parent class, but that shouldn't prevent the array element from being assigned the data type of the derived class, then calling that class's function.
