Title: Switching scenes
Post by: Lester702 on May 09, 2021, 04:39:33 pm

I'm new to building games and using SFML and I have created a basic window with a menu and the player can choose to either play the game or exit, but my issue is once the player clicks play I need to switch the scene and move to the game scene. I've searched for hours trying to find a book or website that has a good example of implementing a state machine, but have not been successful

there are no scenes in SFML, but you can create it yourself if you want to.

have a look at this:
https://github.com/SFML/SFML/wiki/Tutorial:-Basic-Game-Engine

and the first SFML book also talks about state machines:
