2,605 Points"var parameters are depreciated and will be removed in Swift 3" - how does this change our example?
In this example, we use a var parameter player of type "PlayerType" in the attack func.
I am getting an error saying that var parameters will be depreciated in Swift 3, and they recommend removing the "var" from the function, but doing so creates an error as they say "player is a let-type".
How would we accomplish the same function without using a var parameter?
class Enemy: PlayerType, Destructable , Attackable, Movable {
var position: Point
var life: Int = 10
var strength: Int = 5
var range: Int = 2
required init(point: Point) {
self.position = point
}
func decreaseLife(factor: Int) {
self.life -= factor
}
func attack(var player: PlayerType) {
player.life = player.life - strength
}
func move(direction: Direction, distance: Int) {
switch direction {
case .Up: position.y += 1
case .Down: position.y -= 1
case .Left: position.x -= 1
case .Right: position.x += 1
}
}
}

42,016 Pointsyou could try something like this:
func attack(player: PlayerType) {
var player = player
player.life = player.life - strength
}
I cant test anything right now but just going by what the stack overflow comments show, that might work

7,731 PointsThat is because the syntax will change on following updates of swift, so get used to the code the moderator has provided: func attack(player: PlayerType) { var player = player player.life = player.life - strength }
