I've made a small "rover game" similar to this one, except made in C#, using OOP, and prettier menus. Here's how it works:
There is one Rover class which is instantiated into an array containing all rovers. This class contains certain actions that a rover might need like, MoveRover, or RoverDead. There is also a RoverManager class where actions such as updating rovers are executed by looping through the array where the rover data is stored. This is also where rover addition and deletion is managed as well.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
namespace Rovers
{
/* A class for creating a rover */
class Rover
{
public long x;
public long y;
public string name;
public int lifeTime;
public Rover(long x, long y, string name, int lifeTime)
{
this.x = x;
this.y = y;
this.name = name;
this.lifeTime = lifeTime;
}
/* Update the rover lifetime */
public void UpdateRoverLifeTime(int xChange, int yChange)
{
this.lifeTime -= Math.Abs(xChange - yChange);
}
/* Move the rover a desired amount */
public void MoveRover(int xChange, int yChange)
{
if (xChange <= 5 && yChange <= 5 && xChange >= -5 && yChange >= -5)
{
this.x += xChange;
this.y += yChange;
UpdateRoverLifeTime(xChange, yChange);
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("\nPOSITION CHANGE MUST BE <= 5 or >= -5.");
}
}
/* Get input for position changes of the rover */
public void GetRoverPositionChange()
{
Console.WriteLine("\n-- Rover Position Changer Menu. --");
Console.Write("xChange: ");
int xChange = Int32.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
Console.Write("yChange: ");
int yChange = Int32.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
MoveRover(xChange, yChange);
}
/* Output rover statistics */

{
Console.WriteLine("\n-- Rover Stats Menu. --");
Console.WriteLine("Rover: {0}", this.name);
Console.WriteLine("x: {0}, y: {1}", this.x, this.y);

int startingLifeTime = Int32.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
this.roverList.Add(new Rover(startX, startY, name, startingLifeTime));
}
/* Destroy a rover if it's dead */
public void DestroyRovers()
{
for (int n = roverList.Count-1; n >= 0; n--)
{
Rover rover = roverList[n];
if (rover.RoverDead())
{
roverList.Remove(rover);
}
}
}
/* Update each rover */
public void UpdateRovers()
{
for (int n = roverList.Count-1; n >= 0; n--)
{

rover.UpdateRover();
}
}
