Hello everyone, I am new to Kotlin so I am currently exploring the niche things in it, I came up with the idea to code a "crude" CLI based game in kotlin as it would have me use a lot of things from enums to data classes in it so i saw fit for it to make it but I wanted some opinion on something I am trying to implement. I am planning to create a global instance of MenuLoader class which will be used to display the menu and handle the user inputs, but I want to design it so that it can handle a types objects that can be further used to either generate new responses or do something to the game, is there a way for me to be able to create a data class that is not tightly coupled to only a specific type of object but rather is able to store and handle multiple type of object (i.e DialogGenerator, ActionClass, etc..)

Sounds like generic types to me, if it's not. Could you show in pseudo code what you would like?

I have not explored generics at all so will explore and see if they are a fit for this

I don't understand the problem entirely, but regarding the menu items it might be beneficial to look into the Command design pattern.

actually this is exactly what i wanted to have from the looks of it thanks! ^-^

@HighTide I’m glad if I could help, good luck! 😉
