How to pass value to parameterized constructors if there objects are being created as data members of another class?

Question

I am trying to make a Chess Game in C++ using OOPS concepts but face the following error:

src/Game.cpp:6:36: error: no matching function for call to ‘Player::Player()’
 Game::Game(): player1(1), player2(0){
                                    ^
In file included from include/Game.h:4:0,
                 from src/Game.cpp:2:

Here is my code:

Player.h

#ifndef PLAYER_H
#define PLAYER_H
#include <string>
#include <King.h>
#include <Knight.h>
#include <Pawn.h>
#include <Queen.h>
#include <Bishop.h>
#include <Rook.h>
using namespace std;
class Player{
    public:
        Player(int color);
        void getMove();   
        int playerColor;             // 0 if player is black, 1 otherwise.   
    private:
        string move;                
        // each player has the following pieces.
        King king;                          
        Queen queen;
        Bishop bishop[2];
        Rook rook[2];
        Knight knight[2];
        Pawn paws[8];
};
#endif 

Player.cpp

#include "Game.h"
#include "Player.h"
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;


Player::Player(int color)
:playerColor(color){
    
}

Game.h

#ifndef GAME_H
#define GAME_H
#include <Pieces.h>
#include <Player.h>

class Game:public Player
{
    public:
        Game();
    private:
        Player player1;
        Player player2;
        Square cells[8][8];
        bool gameStatus;
        bool whiteTurn;
};

Game.cpp

#include <iostream>
#include "Game.h"
#include "Pieces.h"
using namespace std;

Game::Game(): player1(1), player2(0){
    
}

I am also getting similar error while creating various piece objects in Player.h file How to create these objects?

Answer 1

The source of the error is that Game is derived from Player.

Game::Game(): player1(1), player2(0){
}

is the same as

Game::Game(): Player(), player1(1), player2(0){
}

My suggestion is to not make Player a base class of Game.

// class Game : public Player
class Game
{
    ...
}
