Thanks dude, this book really doesn't explain much about how things work and since it's a directed study i meet with my teacher once a month if that. I have just started using files to store data and for some reason it seems like there is a lot more complexity than there needs to be. Maybe I am just slow or i'm missing something because everything up until this point worked very easily, almost without thinking.
By the way, that getline syntax was really nice. Other people were telling me to do like a document.cin([Large Number],Text,'\n') which didn't seem like a good idea to me.
output is working now, it was really nice to have your stuff to look at. For some reason my string wont allow spaces in it, it just ends if there is a space. I don't understand why it is doing that.

im looking at your code and it really made a difference, not sure where i stand right now, i'm trying to figure it out but i'll update this in probably an hour or two with wether or not i finsihed the program.
I have some fairly simple, or so i thought, code that i had to write for an example problem. The book i'm following is not very straightforward, and it really doesnt even have examples of how code should be written to work properly. it just basically defines functions and says what they do but not how to use them. It's a directed study so i don't really ever meet with my teacher. I could use some help on this topic and if someone could explain to me how to move data out of and back into files it could help me finish the rest of my programs before the due date. Which by the way is in three days from now. Source code that needs fixing is below. I am using visual studio 2010 for c++

Colt... your uneducated, vulgar, and disgraceful opinions and mannerisms are not something that really belongs here. You cannot use models from any game not owned by blizzard unless you have express consent from the creator of said model. You should refrain from profanity on the mapster forums, and you should also respect other people even if you disagree with their views. You came here asking for help, and when you got your answer and it wasn't what you wanted you raged. Please take this attitude elsewhere. It is not productive.
You do have the right to make your own content outside of blizzard, so if you have a problem then don't support them. Make your own game, distribute it on the itunes marketplace, distribute on pirate bay, distribute anywhere. You can get content out to people and you don't need blizzard, just like this discussion doesn't need to be made.
Another thing, if you can find models you like that are public domain, you can simply get a student edition of 3ds max 2011 from the autodesk website and make your own bones and animations to make the models work properly. Just convert them to m3's when you're done and that's roughly all you'd need to do. Mapster isn't about doing things for you, it's about explaining to you how to do something once you've tried and got stumped.
Well, if you won't post the map you'll have to give more information on how your roads were formed, if you can re-create this glitch on other maps, and other things like that. I cannot create the glitch you display.
but uh yeah, the neon tubes are a little excessive detail. Unless you're doing third person shooter it will enver be visible. It took me 10 minutes to even find it.
in your load abilities you need to set cargo sizes. Example: set cargo space to 6 and set max cargo size to 1 and set the cargo size of all infantry to 1
then in the vehicle one set cargo space to 4, set minimum cargo size and maximum cargo size to 4 as well and then set all vehicles to 4.
in the data editor if you open up your structure for producing units there is a field titled interact that allows you to share the building. Look up biffu's item tutorial and watch that, it will show you how to make shared buildings.
