    then the list must be pointer type
    yea, i edited my last reply

    it will be new ones and not the ones on screen.

    it is the ones on the screen, there will be a list of tiles on the screen and the user will choose what tiles they want to render

    *so
    std::array<Tile> should be std::array<Tile > or std::array<Tile &>
    so its the ones on screen and not new ones
    Yes you must at least use & as it must "point" to the real one.

    thanks!!!!!!!!

    all my problem is fixed :) I have not coded for weeks and C++ is already kicking me damit

        Dont worry. I programmed c++ for 20 years and it still kicks me ;)

        woaaaaa, me is about a year, and started this QT last week, i choose this for my tile engine's interface from SFML, i still have more ways to go !^_^

            Yes my first choice is wxwidget and windows form application, but signals and slots mechanism of qt makes me decide to choose qt

              Well IMHO Qt is more feature rich than wxwidget even I did like that also.

              Oh. Wow. thats a huge project. !
              So its an editor and and tile engine for making tile games. Pretty cool.

                  IMHO = In my humble opinion
                  Well I tested both and choose Qt.

                  Would also be huge for me to make as single person if we are talking full
                  game editor and engine :)

                  I would have a good look at http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtscript-index.html
                  Should be fast enough and quite easy to mix c++ and script.

                      Oh thanks for the offer but I only use skype at work as I sit in the living room and
                      taking in mics drives the others crazy :)
                      So no Team Speak for me either :)

                      So you are a group of people making this?

                        I want to sell the whole project. i dont want wasting time doing things that is unrelated to programming so i dont want to make games and sell.

                        okay i see np.

                        So you are a group of people making this?
                        No im the only one making this. the skype group is a group of programmers experts and newbies. just for teaching things

                          You should also consider how to handle support.
                          Takes more time than one realizes.

                          Ah, that way. Did not know skype has such forums/groups.

                          Really good luck with it.

                            oh no, im really bad at explaining things. i mean
                            you can create a conversation group in skype and invite people as many as you can. so i just found this group and then i joined

                            okay thanks again :)

                              my friends,i had a similar case and found this happens when you mix different versions of Qt to compile the project
                              they simply change the ui_*.h files or sometimes they empty it and thus this happens. Occured at least with me ..

                                What type is that ?

                                "use of incomplete type" often means a include file is missing
                                or you forwarded a class
                                like
                                class SomeClass;

                                And try to use it in a context where it needs to be fully defined.
                                Like adding to some template lists.

                                Not sure what you tried to define here ?

                                std::array<Tile,1> tile_list <---- ; missing here?
                                {
                                ui->grassyTile // heres where error coming from

                                @mrjj Thanks, you are right for saying that some header files might be missing.
