Hey I was just wondering how an int can be true, I thought only booleans can be true or false

that is an implicit conversion
false -> 0
true -> 1

so int hunger = true; it just means that hunger = 1?

[maiden valley]

yes

ints can be converted to bools too

if the int is zero you get false

for everything else, you get true

[tidal fractal]

that would be (bool) hunger am I correct?

[maiden valley]

yes, this is a C-style cast, which will be replaced by static_cast<bool>(hunter)

Okay thanks for the help :D

[maiden valley]

the full list of available implicit conversions is long, this should be enough for you for now
