So, just for fun I have been making a small text-based game to test my knowledge of C++ so far. However, I have encountered an odd error where commands will execute once, and then after that return the same output repeatedly. Could anyone analyze this and see what's wrong? Here is the source (sorry, it is a bit long)

this->weight=weight;
this->position=position;
}
};
double calcDamage(Item item) {
const int modifier=4;
double damage;
damage+=item.strength*modifier;

return damage;

<<"For a list of command, type ls"<<endl;
string command=""; //Still good to assign.
int stopper=0;

if(command=="ls")
list();
if(command=="a")
stopper=attack(player, opponent);
if(command=="mr")
moveRight(player);
if(command=="ml")
moveLeft(player);
}while(command!="gq"||stopper);
return 0;
}Here is some sample output:
Mayhem - Version 1
To quit the game type gq
For a list of command, type ls
>ml
Your position is: 1
>ml
Your position is: 1
>mr
Your position is: 2
>mr
Your position is: 2
>a
Did 170 damage.
You took 170 damage.
Your health is: 830
Your opponent's is 830
>a
Did 170 damage.
You took 170 damage.
Your health is: 830
Your opponent's is 830
>gq
Also, this is my first time making a thread on Daniweb, so feel free to alert me if I did something wrong.
