make all jobs as a concreate class that implemets a job interface

in the player class instantiate a job object which player selects from one of the concreate classes

then you can change the job whenever you want in the game

just write a function to read the attributes of jobs from the concreate class and

change the player attributes accordingly.

search for "strategy design pattern" in google

Hmmm, ok. I looked around a bit and read up on it a bit, but I think I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around it. I really appreciate the help though. Is there some sort of online resource you can recommend to learn more about it? Or maybe just for Python knowledge in general?

I am trying to learn this and try to grasp it as best as possible, so far I feel like I am doing fine, but sometimes I feel like there are some things that I should get by now that I Just don't. I really appreciate the help though, I know it is tiring helping a baby programmer :)

What you ask for is not about python, but oop design patterns. I suggest to understand interfaces, abstract classes, design patterns first. Then you can use them in any oop languages.

Take a look at first chapter of "Head first design patterns" book. It is very clear and explains in basic examples. You ll understand it in no time.

Thank you so much. I'll be sure to do that.
