Three Dynamic Array Implementations : Template-Macro, Void Pointer , Fat Pointer
Yea, bit annoying to do that, especially in a large project some vectors need to be static some need to be exposed in the API. In my mind the best solution is to add another macro parameter that lets the user change the function scope on the fly. See the vector used in the permafrost engine (a fellow redditor); when I first saw how he wrote his template macros it was a game changing trick.

EVERGLORY - my one-man open-source passion project RTS - gets a new trailer and a Linux demo!
And the source code for the engine is here on GitHub. I've written like 75k SLOC of C for it. It's a pretty general-purpose RTS engine that could be used for a lot of things - full conversions, remakes of classics, other RTS/citybuilder/ARPG games, and more. It has a Python scripting API for the top-level gameplay logic.

BTW, the engine is fully open-source. So if you want to take a deep dive into the code, it's here: https://github.com/eduard-permyakov/permafrost-engine

100k members! To celebrate, what is your favorite piece of C code you have written?
I'm into my third year of writing my own RTS game engine in C. Complete with OpenGL rendering, group pathfinding of 1k+ entities, Python scripting, yada, yada, yada.

Is there any game where you can design your own weapons/vehicles?
It is more an RTS than a 'classical' wargame, but you could do it in Warzone 2100. It is old for now (but it was very fun in 2000s). It could be fun for you today. There is a free and open source version : https://wz2100.net/ .

What is your favourite open source game(s)?
It's free at wz2100.net and it's tiny, mere megabytes.

So...C&C is one of the only games I can play for the foreseeable future...
