Could someone provide a tutorial on how to use multidimensional arrays within AppGameKit? I had issues using them with DBPro - so I avoided them - but a project I'd like to hammer out in AppGameKit would benefit heavily from them.

Also, what limitations and constraints are there with multiple dimension arrays within AppGameKit?

Hi there. My name is Dug. I have just met you, and I love you.

About midway down the page, has examples of multi-dimensional arrays.

A very simple implementation of a multidimensional array:

dim map[10,10]
do
map[5,5]=42
print(map[5,5])
sync()
loop

I drink tea, and in my spare time I write software.

Tsk, tsk, Lee. You don't really want that assignment inside the loop, do you?

I mean, it works and all, but it's just taking up cycles.

Lee,
I think you meant

dim map[10,10]
map[5,5]=42

do
print(map[5,5])
sync()
loop

Nicely spotted! Never let a performance boost pass you by!
