I have this Singleton class called ZombieLand that is supposed to represent a 2D array. This 2D array is getting constantly updated and populated by different instances of my MachineState struct, which contain x and y coordinates to help me navigate through the 2D array.

#pragma once
#include "singleton.h"
#include "machine.h"
#include "traits.h"
#include <list>


class ZombieLand : public Singleton<ZombieLand>
{
    DECLARE_SINGLETON(ZombieLand);
public:
    MachineState * world [19][19];
    bool map[19][19];
    ZombieLand()
    {

        for(int i = 0; i<19; i++)
        {
            for(int m = 0; m<19; m++)
            {
                map[i][m] = false;
            }
        }
        memset(world,0,sizeof(world));
    }
    MachineState *getField(int x, int y)
    {
        return world[x][y];
    }

    void setWorld(MachineState state)
    {
        world[state.x][state.y] = &state;
        map[state.x][state.y] = true;
    }
    void setFlag(int x, int y)
    {
        delete world[x][y];
        world[x][y] = NULL;
        map [x][y] = false;
    }

};

I'm having problems checking to see if there is a MachineState at location in the 2D array world[Machinestate.x][Machinestate.y]. I used a bool map to tell me if a certain location is occupied or not, but that doesn't give me a pointer to the actual object that is at coordinate x and y, in case i try to delete it. I tried doing MachineState * machine = Zombieland::get().getField(state.x,state.y-1) and then check to see if (machine != NUlL) but i keep getting errors when i compile.
