How can I modify this code to have up to 6 players (can be 2,3,4,5,6 player depending on user)? Thank you

So ask the user for number of players, if user says 3...simulate 3 players

If user says 5, simulate for 5 players and so on. 

 

**all players must start OUTSIDE and only enters game if they roll a six and whoever rolls a 6 plays again 

 

 

 

#include <iostream>

#include <ctime>

#include <cstdlib>

 

using namespace std;

 

#define DESTINATION 30 // define 30 as the winning position

 

int dice() {

srand(time(NULL)); // used for seeding in order to get

// different random values each time

return (rand()%6 +1); // since %6 gives 0 to 5, so add 1.

}

 

int snake(int n) {

if (n == 17)

return 4;

else if (n == 19)

return 7;

else if (n == 21)

return 9;

else if (n == 27)

return 1;

}

 

int ladder(int n) {

if (n == 3)

return 22;

else if (n == 5)

return 8;

else if (n == 11)

return 26;

else if (n == 20)

return 29;

}

 

int main () {

int currentpos = 1; // user starts at 1

int value; // value on dice

int count = 0; // to keep track of the number of dice rolls

char choice;

 

choice = 'N'; // by default consider choice as NO

do {

if (choice == 'Y' || choice == 'y') {

value = dice();

count++; // increment the number of dice rolls

cout << "The dice reads " << value <<".\n";

currentpos += value;

if (currentpos > DESTINATION) { // check if current position is going beyond the destination

cout << "Sorry! It\'s a very high number, Roll the dice again!\n";

currentpos -= value; // substract the previous value

}

else if (currentpos == 3 || currentpos == 5 || currentpos == 11 || currentpos == 20) { // check for ladder

currentpos = ladder(currentpos);

cout << "You are on a ladder to " << currentpos << "!! Yaay!\n";

}

else if (currentpos == 17 || currentpos == 19 || currentpos == 21 || currentpos == 27) { // check for snake

currentpos = snake(currentpos);

cout << "Oops the snake just bit you!! Sorry, you are now at " << currentpos << ".\n";

}

else if (currentpos == DESTINATION) { // check if destination has been reached

cout << "Yaay!! You have successfully reached your destination and you took " << count << " tries to reach there.\nCongratulations.\nDo you want to play again? Enter ‘y’ or ‘Y’ to continue.\n";

currentpos = 0; // this ensures that if Y is entered, then game starts from place 0.

cin >> choice;

if (choice == 'N' || choice == 'n') // if user enters N, then exit

break;

}

else

cout << "You are now at " << currentpos << "!!!\n"; // this is used if ladder, snake and destination not encountered

}

cout << "Rolling the dice! Enter 'Y' or 'y' to roll!: ";

cin >> choice;

} while (choice == 'Y' || choice == 'y');

cout << "Goodbye!\n";

return 0;

}
