I know it's a longshot that anyone will bother looking through this but I cannot find the error.
You guys know what it's like, there will be one obvious thing that I'm missing and someone else will find it instantly.
I've narrowed it down to these two functions but cannot for the life of me find it.
I WILL +REP LOADS WHOEVER FINDS THE ERROR - This is driving me insane.

Nah, I've already got my prototype earlier in my code. I dont want to be pasting about 700 lines on here though

Lurking in the background again, the only issue i see out of those functions is that "exit" is actually a C++ Function, you are setting as a local Boolean, maybe worth changing as that could be an issue....
Their is no default case on your first switch statement, but that shouldn't cause a compile error, only a possible runtime error....
I am assuming newGame is called from your Main Method (if you showed all the code...) so the return statement at the end of the newGame Method is also valid....
Can't see any other issues..... so I am a bit stumped at the moment.

I don't understand the issue. Is it not compiling? I checked over the code a few times and saw no syntax errors. I'm going to test out somethings with the code. I'll run some diagnostics and such. I will also consult with my actual teacher if necessary as this is also driving me insane.

default:
{
printf("That was an invalid movement.\n");
validMove = true;
break;
}
}
} while (validMove == false); I quickly glanced at the code and saw after your default breaks it has two }.
I checked to see if all brackets are there and they are - try deleting the extra bracket.
This could be what is giving your error. It causes your do/while loop to end giving the compilation error - your while loop is still exists.

The double }} is to close of the last case statement and the entire switch altogether.
