So I have my maze printed out once the user presses 1 in order to launch the map and other variables. I have declared the player as a smiley face or set equal to 1. However, I would like to make this character movable throughout the maze but am having trouble doing so. I have created a player move as a space in order for it to move without overwriting other code. I was thinking of using a switch statement and detecting user input and then changing the X and Y positions based on that but I dont know how to put it in my mapCreation function. I was also wondering if you guys could help me generate the variables such as treasures at random locations throughout the map and if it is a wall or '|' then dont print. My treasures spawn but at the same location. Any input on any of my questions would really help! Thank you!
** Ignore the cases as they were just being used previously but now I dont have a use for them.
**UPDATE If anyone has a link somewhere that would help that would also be helpful! Thank you!
