actually here is a better idea ill just post the whole file:

[code to program snipped]

I compiled your program and ran it after creating a 0.room file.

This is my output:
Test Room
You are standing in a test room
[ n s w u d ]


[ ]

I suspect that you do not have your room file in the right location so
it's failing on open.

Add at least the check for open I showed.

I'm lost. I found the error, but don't know what's producing it. Marked
inline

actually here is a better idea ill just post the whole file:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
#include <sstream>

using namespace std;

class room {
public:
room() { }
room(int rnum, string rname, string rdesc, int rexits[]){
roomNumber = rnum;
roomName = rname;
roomDescription = rdesc;
int i;
for(i = 0; i < sizeof(roomExits); i++){
roomExits[i] = rexits[i];
}
}

void room::setRoomNumber(int rnum){
roomNumber = rnum;
}

void room::setRoomName(string rname){
roomName = rname;
}

void room::setRoomDescription(string rdesc){
roomDescription = rdesc;
}

void room::setRoomExits(int n, int s, int e, int w, int u, int d){
roomExits[0] = n; roomExits[1] = s; roomExits[2] = e;
roomExits[3] = w; roomExits[4] = u; roomExits[5] = d;
}

int room::getRoomNumber(){
return roomNumber;
}

string room::getRoomName(){
return roomName;
}

string room::getRoomDescription(){
return roomDescription;
}

int* room::getRoomExits(){
return roomExits;
}

void room::room2File(){
ostringstream filename;
filename << "../gamefiles/rooms/" << roomNumber << ".room";
ofstream outfile(filename.str().c_str());

outfile << roomNumber << "\n";
outfile << roomName << "\n";
outfile << roomDescription << "\n";
outfile << roomExits[0] << " ";
outfile << roomExits[1] << " ";
outfile << roomExits[2] << " ";
outfile << roomExits[3] << " ";
outfile << roomExits[4] << " ";
outfile << roomExits[5] << " ";
outfile.close();
}
static room room::file2Room(int rnum){
ostringstream filename;
filename << "../gamefiles/rooms/" << rnum << ".room";
ifstream infile(filename.str().c_str());
string roomNameIn, roomDescriptionIn;
int roomExitsIn[6];
infile >> rnum;

This is not happening. It's ignoring the line with the value 0 but not
throwing any errors or moving along the file pointer. I've tried creating a
different var to read into such as:
int rN;
infile >> rN;

but it's still not reading.

If you ignore the room number and just discard the line

std::string temp;
getline( infile, rN );

everything else works fine.

I don't know why this is. The file appears to be perfectly fine.

0
Test Room
You are standing in a test room
1 2 -1 4 5 6

This has me completely stumped. I tried writing a 1 instead of a 0 and it
wouldn't read that either.

I'm confused. Hopefully someone else will see this post and have an idea.

getline(infile, roomNameIn);
getline(infile, roomDescriptionIn);
infile >> roomExitsIn[0] >> roomExitsIn[1] >> roomExitsIn[2] >>
roomExitsIn[3] >> roomExitsIn[4] >> roomExitsIn[5];
room r;
r.setRoomNumber(rnum);
r.setRoomName(roomNameIn);
r.setRoomDescription(roomDescriptionIn);
r.setRoomExits(roomExitsIn[0], roomExitsIn[1], roomExitsIn[2],
roomExitsIn[3], roomExitsIn[4], roomExitsIn[5]);
return r;
}

private:
int roomNumber;
string roomName, roomDescription;
int roomExits[6];
friend ostream& operator << (ostream& os, room& r){
string rooms;
if(r.roomExits[0] >= 0){
rooms += " n";
}
if(r.roomExits[1] >= 0){
rooms += " s";
}
if(r.roomExits[2] >= 0){

if(r.roomExits[3] >= 0){
rooms += " w";
}
if(r.roomExits[4] >= 0){

rooms += " d";
}
return os << r.roomName << "\n" << r.roomDescription << "\n" << "["
<< rooms << " ]\n";
}
};

int main(void){
room r;
r.setRoomNumber(0);
r.setRoomName("Test Room");
r.setRoomDescription("You are standing in a test room");
r.setRoomExits(1, 2, -1, 4, 5, 6);
r.room2File();
cout << r;

room r2;
r2 = room::file2Room(0);
cout << r2;
return 0;
