Like said in the question, I can not figure out why I cannot add item to my rooms if anyone has an insight on this I would appreciate it. I'm not sure if need to somehow import dicitonary to CreateRooms( ) if yes how?
public void CreateRooms()
{
// create the rooms
Room outside = new Room("outside the main entrance of the university");
Room hallway = new Room("inside the hallway of the university");
Room theatre = new Room("in a lecture theatre");
Room basement = new Room("in the basement");
Room pub = new Room("in the campus pub");
Room lab = new Room("in a computing lab");
Room office = new Room("in the computing admin office");
// initialise room exits
outside.AddExit("east", hallway);
outside.AddExit("south", lab);
outside.AddExit("west", pub);
hallway.AddExit("west", outside);
hallway.AddExit("up", theatre);
hallway.AddExit("down", basement);
theatre.AddExit("down", hallway);
basement.AddExit("up", hallway);
pub.AddExit("east", outside);
lab.AddExit("north", outside);
lab.AddExit("east", office);
office.AddExit("west", lab);
Item axe = new Item(5, "a sharp axe");
outside.Chest.Put("axe", axe); // System.NullReferenceException
player.currentRoom = outside; // start game outside
}
These are the methods that put items to the room and where I get/take item from room to my inventory.
public bool Put(string itemName, Item item)
{
items.Add(itemName, item);
Console.WriteLine("There is " + itemName + " in this room. Will you take it?");
return true;
}
public Item Get(string itemName)
{
Item item = null;
if (items.ContainsKey(itemName))
{
item = items[itemName];
items.Remove(itemName);
}
return item;
}
