Are there any commands for re-sizing an Array or deleting items from an array? If DIM and UNDIM are the only two available, I may have to come up with my own functions to handle resizing but if something is already there to handle it that would be great.
If there is nothing, I would still recommend these functions.

Undim is currently not available.

The only option at the moment is to do something like this:

DIM array [ 100 ]

DIM array [ 10 ]

The second declaration will allow you to replace the larger array with a smaller one. The first array will be deleted and wiped.

Will DIM array[0] completely remove the contents of the array freeing up that memory?
I would like to have some clean up routine at the end of each play session.
I know you're probably working on the additions memory management which is why I really suggest the additions of the other functions.

Yes, it will free the array.
