I am in the beginning stages of making a game, and I am wondering if it is best to have 1 main header that includes all my other headers, or should I only include headers needed for each module I am working on?

I am asking this because I am now noticing that as my project grows any change to my 1 main header causes everything to recompile...

So, any thoughts about this topic that can help ?
I am thinking I should probably just include the headers needed for each class instead of including everything in each class.

Please share any thoughts please...

It's dangerous to go alone.

You might want to look at this way back machine article that jpetrie wrote about master headers.

Thank you very much SiCrane... I read that and it helps a lot.
I have had to reorder headers at times to make things work, and now I understand why
