The function setEntityPositions() would just iterate over the array and set the position to a random position and the symbol to the passed-in symbol for each entity in the array. (And of course, you'll need to define TRAPSYMBOL, BANDITSYMBOL, and PLAYERSYMBOL appropriately.)

bool checkSquareAgainstEntity(int x, int y, GameEntity* entities, int numEntities)
{
 bool result = false;
 for (int z = 0; (z < numEntities) && (!result); z++ {
 GameEntity nextEntity = entities [ z ];
 if (nextEntity.position.xPosition == x **
 nextEntity.position.yPosition == y) {
 std::cout << nextEntity.symbol;
 result = true;
 }
 }
 return result;
