How to store user string input in array, C++

Question

I am building a choose your own adventure.

So basically, after the user inputs their name I would like the playerList switch statement to store whatever is entered into basePlayer[].

Also if you are going to run this, you will have to click the down arrow after you enter your name to get to the playerList menu, because its kind of buggy.

Help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you, Mike

尝试从程序中删除语句cin.get() ，因为cin >> name输入name ，因此对于cin.get()无效。
