Card game - shuffle and deal cards

Damien2k15 · October 20, 2016, 5:38pm

Hi guys.

I want a card distribution system for a game. But the game has 3 different decks. 2 of them with 8 card and 1 to 11. I would have to shuffle the 3 separately and remove 1 card from each group. Then add 3 and re-shuffling and only then distribute the remainder to the number of players at the table.

How can I do it? Can anyone help me since I don’t have c ++ programming experience.

Thanks

well what U are asking for needs really strong AI’s to act as an opponent like ex:- Chess might look like a simple game but the background AI that plays againsst U is really a strong opponent.

How about programming in general? Cause I ll try to provide with a pseudo code or concept to maybe get you going with an idea.

How can I do it?

Each card in the deck has its own ID value (integer from 1 to 8 or 11)
A Deck is an Array or a Queue of Cards.
Randomize an Array (shuffle) → Refer to this post How to shuffle a TArray? - Programming & Scripting - Epic Developer Community Forums
Remove\Pop (or random) element from Array.
Add cards to Decks
Shuffle again.
Deal card by Pop’ing from the Array\Queue

Is that something you were looking for?
